We need great talent to perform, host workshops and lead our dance programme for the 2024 Wellington Folk Festival. If you’d like to be in the programme in any of these capacities (or know people who might), here is a link to our online application form:
Guest applications for the 2025 Festival (24 -27 October 2025)
Applications close at midnight on Sunday 23 February.
Feel free to forward this link to your friends or anyone you’d like to see on our guest list. Applications are encouraged in any of these areas:
- Concerts or other performance
- Dance in a variety of traditional and modern styles
- Workshops on dance, musicianship, performance, specific instruments, cultural and historic influences and evolution of folk music and dance
- Learning (and fun) activities for kids
The application form has specific guidance on how to put together your application. It’s important to complete the form in full so we have a consistent basis for comparing potential guests and preparing a rough programme.
We expect to be in contact with shortlisted guests by the end of April.
