Welcome to the Sidmouth FolkWeek Children’s Festival!Here we go again! The Sidmouth FolkWeek’s Children’s Festival is packed full of wonderful thingsto do, dances to learn, music to play and songs to sing. There are some fabulous ‘journeys’ heregiving young people of all ages opportunity to access workshops at their own level and to lookforward to moving on as they get older each year. We have an amazing programme of eveningfamily shows featuring stories, music, laughter and fun with some circus thrown in too. Notforgetting the wonderful Stomping Ceilidh, which was a highlight of last year’s Children’s Festival. By far the best way to enable children to access the full programme of events for children is tobuy a Children’s Festival Season Ticket. This gives priority access to all events in the Children’sProgramme (space permitting). Blackmore Gardens forms the focal point for families with threeworkshop marquees, superb performances from our Young Performers showcasing on the GardenStage and all manner of walkabout and pop up entertainment. Spread a picnic blanket and soakup the atmosphere while children enjoy their very own programme of workshops and activities.
