What an inspiring event, put on with a superb mixture of love and professionalism. It was a genuine pleasure to be involved.

I love your festival.

In light of the Supreme Court's recent ruling, Hartlepool Folk Festival would like to reassure our LGBTQ+ audiences, artists and friends that the festival warmly welcomes you as always. We will not accept discrimination of any kind, and ask that you speak to a steward or a member of the Box Office team if you experience intolerant language or behaviour related to your sexuality or gender presentation, in any of our spaces. 

The festival has celebrated and platformed the work of LGBTQ+ artists from the beginning, and we will continue to do so. Folk belongs to everyone, and it's made so much richer through the perspectives of participants from a wide range of backgrounds and experiences.

 

We are here for you, we've got your back. You're safe with us. 

See what we've got up to so far...
