European Folk Day: FIRST HELD ON THE 23rd September 2023!
The first ever European Folk Day took place on Saturday, 23rd September 2023.
From grassroots communities to national organisations, and from individual musicians to companies involved in traditional arts at any level, anyone can get involved in this annual event. In the music player above, we have included a collection of mixcloud recordings of folk music that we really like from UK Folk Music, Tom music and Folk & Acoustic Show.

The traditional arts are an essential element of European cultural identity and diversity. They are a source of wealth of a magnitude we can only begin to imagine.
There are millions of us who work, create and actively participate in this fundamental element of our culture. It’s time to celebrate that!
