PDF Directory
The English Folk Dance and Song Society produces a directory of Youth Folk Opportunities around England. Our PDF directory is produced as part of our National Youth Folk Ensemble programme, which aims to promote, develop and link youth folk music activities across England.
Our directory shares a selection of regional and national opportunities for young people who play or are interested in exploring folk and traditional music. These include folk bands, summer schools, competitions, courses, bursaries, and creative learning projects.
The PDF listings were compiled before the Coronavirus pandemic. Since then, many events have been postponed or cancelled. We have not created a document for 2021, due to ungoing uncertainties around activities. Please contact the organisations directly to find out more.
