In addition to the main concerts there is a full programme of mini concerts, workshops, ‘Meet the artists’ sessions, craft stalls, food and drink, real ale (obviously!), late night extras, jam sessions, watercolour demonstrations, open mic sessions, storytelling, morris dancing, and more.

Camping and caravanning is available on site (with decent showers too!) so you can stay for the whole weekend and enjoy the good music, good food, good drink (did we mention the real ale?), and good company.

Full details can be found at wirralfolkonthecoast.com

TICKET UPDATE – online tickets are no longer available as they’re almost sold out for the Sunday evening Fairport Convention concert. Phone the box office for up to date ticket info.
