The festival organisers are preparing a cornucopia of talent representing the sounds, rhythms and traditions of Ireland, Eastern Europe, Africa, USA, Australia, Scotland, England and our very own Northumberland.

This will be served up via the genres of Folk, Jazz, Blues, Celtic, Balkan, Americana and World Fusion - and live poetry.

Details of this year’s performers are still being added, but see  the Performers page on the festivals' website for news of confirmed artists and groups.

A lively programme of evening concerts and events is also being planned  - details are on their Evening Events page - plus workshop sessions for young and young at heart to enjoy.
