FFA favourite Beardy Folk Festival has announced the latest updates to it’s comprehensive Activities Programme. In conjunction with its Artists Line Up, 2023 could offer up the best Beardy yet.
Our FFA Reviewers love Beardy – here’s what we had to say about the 2022 shenanigans in the FFA Beardy Folk Festival 2022 Review.
Beardy is a charming bijou event held in the wonderfully atmospheric surroundings of Hopton Court in beautiful Shropshire. The festival is held in and around the Grade II Listed Georgian Country House’s splendid Walled Garden. It is hard to think of a better location than Beardy for a full weekend of folk, acoustic, blues, and everything else in the burgeoning ‘Folk’ genre.
In 2023, Beardy has excelled with arguably its best line up yet:
As well as the music line up on The Walled Garden Main and Acoustic stages there's also all of the following...
