About The Event
Since 1955, Sidmouth Folk Festival has celebrated folk music, dance, and song by the sea – a vibrant and inclusive gathering that honours tradition while embracing innovation.
Every August, tens of thousands of visitors descend on the beautiful East Devon coast for a week of concerts, dances, storytelling, workshops, and sessions that bring the town to life. With world-class artists, emerging talent, and a community spirit at its heart, Sidmouth Folk Festival is a place where old meets new and folk traditions evolve.
Showcase Scotland Expo are delighted to partner with the festival, presenting 10 artists to perform at the 2026 event.
Applications for artist showcase opportunities at Sidmouth Folk Festival have now closed.
