ALL DAY tickets allow you to see ALL of the concerts on offer as they are staggered and with just a short walk between each venue.

• AFTERNOON tickets allow you to see concerts 1, 2 and 3.
• EVENING tickets allow you to see our final concert.

Tickets are limited in number and we usually sell out and had a long wait list last year and few returns so buy yours now to avoid dissappointment.

Don't forget to order a free ticket for any under 12s when you book your ticket.

The four ticketed concerts are in the Memorial Hall (The Di King Stage) and our glorious twelfth century Church of St Peter & St Paul, while the Village Green hosts a free stage, a range of food and drink stalls and plenty of room for you to set up your ‘camp’ for the day.

Don't forget there is plenty of free music and activities in the village during the festival...

Take your time to stroll around all of the venues, serenaded by buskers as you go. Visit The Boot pub for traditional open sessions, then stop off at the Village Green stage, where there will be free music and dance all afternoon along with a full range of artisan street food stalls, real ales bars and craft stalls.

There’s also entertainment for all the family at nearby Garden Fields and music workshops in the Dacre Rooms.

NEW THIS YEAR...T-Shirts! When you buy your tickets why not add souvenir T-shirts to remind you of what a fantastic time you had at Kimpton Folk Festival. Just add them to your ticket order and they will be available for you to pick up on the day when you check in at the box office. Sizing details below.
