/ wellingtonfolkfestival

Earlybird tickets for the 2025 60th Wellington Folk Festival have now closed, but you can buy tickets online until 19 October at the presale price from Humanitix.

Registrations for children aged 12 or under are free as we celebrate being “60 years young”, and there’s another great youth programme running this year, included in the Festival registration for children and youth aged 5 – 18.

You will be able to buy tickets at the gate from 3pm on Friday 24 October. If you want a bunk, it’s best to book as soon as possible as they usually sell out in advance of the Festival.

Opening of Early Bird Ticket Sales Postponed

/ wellingtonfolkfestival

Just a quick heads up from the Committee – we had intended to open early bird ticket sales for the Festival earlier this week.  However, in the light of recent events, as set out below, this has been postponed. 

Unfortunately, Hiremaster, the Festival’s primary infrastructure provider for many years, has been placed in liquidation. Arrangements were in place for Hiremaster to again provide most of the infrastructure for this year’s Festival.  As a result of the liquidation of the company we are now having to wait a week or so to learn whether those arrangements will be honoured.  

In the meantime we are investigating possible alternative suppliers, should these be needed, what the costs might be, and what the implications might be for our budget and for ticket prices.  

Thank you for your patience.

If you’re not already on our email list, sign up to our mailing list here to be sure of getting updates as soon as possible.
