“In the weird and difficult world we live in now, getting to programme an event to celebrate the folk community is fortunate. We’re very excited about the artists we’ve lined up for our audience. Coming together in January will be a reward for a long and arduous end to 2021,” Artistic Director Finn McLennan-Elliott says. “We strive to present a unique and interesting programme each year and some of the parts to the 2022 festival have been in the works for many years, so we can’t wait for you to discover these with us.”
With six different stages, a marketplace, food trucks and workshops, there is something for everyone at Auckland Folk Festival.
