Join in with traditional – and some more modern – tunes and songs performed by excellent local musicians.
You can also take part in our other events like our popular FolknFell music weekend, with an opportunity for some fell walking too. Alternatively, why not attend an occasional gig or a “Day of Music” combining workshops, session playing and a concert?
