Chester Folk Festival is 50 years old
Chester Folk Festival proudly celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2025, marking five decades of music, dance, and community spirit in the heart of Kelsall. We collected our favourite stories, memories & pictures from all those years - click below to see them.
One of our favourite callers, Martyn Harvey, has written a special dance to celebrate our 50th Anniversary. This was premiered at the Festival on Sunday 25th May.
