Swaledale Festival runs from Saturday 24 May to Saturday 7 June this year, with 60+ music, arts and walking events to inspire, transport and exhilarate in the spectacular northern Yorkshire Dales.
There’s exceptional classical, folk, worldwide and jazz musicians, plus Young Artist Platform concerts from rising stars. There’s theatre, film, comedy, talks and puppetry, and a wealth of opportunities to participate and create, from Swedish basketry and landscape photography to the opening Fauré Requiem Singing Day and 12 guided walks in Swaledale’s special landscape.
