Otley Folk Festival

We are pleased to announce that this years Otley Folk Festival main venues will be Otley Parish Church and Otley Common. 

The Otley Folk Festival has used the old Methodist Hall in past years and now, with the refurbishment in full swing we, are confident that our relationship with the folk festival will flourish.

There will be shows across both Saturday and Sunday here at Otley Common.

This years festival has a line-up of artists to be proud of.

Friday evenings headliners are Jez Lowe & The Bad Pennies, singer/songwriter Jez and his superb band from the north east. Saturdays artists include guitar virtuoso Martin Simpson, the fantastic threesome Chris Sherburn, Denny Bartley and Emily Sanders and Sunday will see Otley debutants Jon Spiers & Jackie Oates and Bryony Griffiths & Alice Jones.

These folk stars will be supported over the weekend by singer/songwriter Katie Spencer, Patsy Matheson and Friends, local duo Plumhall, Tim Dalling, multi instrumentalist Gordon Tyrrall, the Duncan McFarlane Band, The Hall Brothers, Jon Palmer Acoustic Band, Angelo Palladino, Noah Fenton, Monkeys Fist, Dave Vermond plus a host of local artists. Street entertainment, family events, music workshops and sessions will all combine to make for a great weekend.

We always like to offer excellent value and currently the Early Bird full weekend adult ticket is selling at just £70.
