Welcome to the

White Horse Folk Festival

13th to 15th August 2027

White Horse Folk Festival takes place in Grove, near Wantage in rural Oxfordshire. It is a small, friendly, and relaxed festival created for folk fans who love making new connections.

  • An Inclusive Vibe: Everyone is encouraged to play an active part in the weekend’s events rather than just watching from the sidelines.
  • Daily Music & Singing: Join in with daily music sessions and singarounds
  • Artist-Led Workshops: Festival artists do more than just perform—they host interactive workshops, concerts, and special presentations.
  • A Community Feel: Guest musicians and performers join in with the general goings-on all weekend long, making the whole gathering feel less like a formal lineup and more like a massive, weekend-long party.
