Wellyfest 2020 Goes Homegrown
Wellington Folk Festival is all set to go at Labour Weekend.
Wellyfest 2020 will run at the regular venue.
Due to the international Covid-19 travel restrictions, it will be a totally homegrown event, which means the Festival can feature more top class New Zealand performers in its three-day programme.
The line up is:
Darren Watson, Entrada, Mehana, Colette Rivers, Barry and the Crumpets, Grawlixes, Moroney, Sadie & Jay, Gumboot Tango, Raven Mavens Quartette, Alan Downes, The Flukes.
Vicfolk (Victoria University of Wellington Folk Music Club) will run the welcome ceilidh and the big Saturday night dance, and the Balladeer Specials invitation stage will be in action all weekend.
Participation is one of the key elements at Wellyfest. As well as concerts by the featured acts, the jam-packed programme includes plenty of opportunities for festival goers to perform and learn. There will be lots of music and dance workshops, blackboard concerts, singarounds and jamming.
