The famous Free Wessex Folk Festival is held in the first week of June and has been established for the past 20 years. After a couple of years break due to covid restrictions the good news is it’s back this year. It is a free Festival held in the picturesque Harbourside in Weymouth.
A weekend of pub based sessions with some workshops and Morris Dancers at various locations around the town is planned. On the Sunday there will be a stage in Hope Square featuring some local acts culminating with a Ceilidh in the Square before retiring to the pubs to close out the weekend with some “relaxing” sessions.
