What people say

 "What a totally amazing little find this was!  Music from around the world, in a field, great sound system, local beers/ciders, safe place for kids to make friends and explore, no trashy waste-of-money stalls, delicious food, kids tent with free stuff for them to do.  Amazing!"

"From 6 to 40-something year olds, everyone in our group had a wonderful time at this fantastic, quality, friendly festival. Roll on next year" 

Top Quality Music

In Rockhampton we punch above our weight!  Last year's line up featured a winner of the BBC Young Folk Musician award,  gypsy swing and the exotic sounds of the Middle East and Caribbean.  We're finalising a great line up for 2018 - watch this space !

Lovely Countryside Venue

The festival is in a small field by the church in our Gloucestershire village.  There are no commercial stalls; it's simply about great music, good local food and a relaxed friendly atmosphere.  
​And it's only 15 miles from Bristol.

Family Friendly Atmosphere

People tell us they love the friendly atmosphere at our local festival.  The field is compact and safe; you can keep an eye on your children while enjoying the music and good food.

Outreach

Making a difference to our local community is at the heart of what Rockhampton Folk Festival is about.  In the week before the festival we bring  music to children and disadvantaged groups who would otherwise rarely engage with the arts and live performance.​​

Latest News

Are you in Wickwar, Charfield, Wotton or Cromhall ?

You probably saw our happy band of scarecrows brightening up local streets in the weeks leading up to the festival.  Last year our scarecrows were kidnapped by the council so we're looking for some prominent places on private land to put them, especially in the towns near Rockhampton. 

If you'd like to help bring a smile to passers-by and get a free ticket to the festival as a thank you then contact us.

Happy Memories

2017 saw the festival we'd dreamed of when we started five years ago.  Top quality music led by a BBC Young Folk winner, lovely weather, top local food and a friendly family atmosphere.
