60 Festivals in 61 years!

What an amazing feat! How many have you attended? What are your highlights and favourite memories?

We’re planning to continue the tradition of writing up history of the festival every ten years, and we’d love to include your reminiscences. Janette Munneke will be out at the festival with a voice recorder – please think about some recollections you’d like to share and come and chat with her during the Festival, or you can email them to this address: wffmemories@gmail.com

To jog your memory, you can view many of the past programmes on the Wellyfest website at this link: https://wellingtonfolkfestival.org.nz/past-programmes/ (but beware, you might get lost for a while!). There will also be a slideshow and some poster boards at the Festival.
