Teignmouth Folk Festival 2027

Teignmouth Folk Festival returns for a midsummer weekend in June 2027, the same volunteer-run event that has occupied the town and seafront for more than twenty-six years. Outdoor dance displays, sessions and much of the daytime programme remain free, with a handful of ticketed concerts and a ceilidh filling the evenings.

The festival is organised entirely by volunteers and stays not-for-profit, relying on donations, local sponsorship and grants from the town and district councils.

Most free activity takes place in the Triangle and along the seafront; indoor events use venues such as St James Church, Teignmouth Rugby Club and the Teign Heritage Centre. An information point is usually staffed in the Triangle.

Dates for 2027 are Friday 11 June to Sunday 13 June. Tickets for the ticketed concerts, ceilidh and workshops go on sale via Ticket Tailor on the festival website once the programme is confirmed. I

Individual event tickets are available; weekend or multi-event options may also be offered.

Teignmouth station is a short walk from the centre. The town centre is mostly flat, with parking nearby (including Teign Street and the station). Local accommodation is available in Teignmouth, with camping options at Lady’s Mile Holiday Park (Dawlish Warren) or Longmeadow Farm (Shaldon).

The festival encourages public transport and reusable bottles. Seafront play areas, mini-golf and the pier are close by.
