For 13 consecutive years, Derby has hosted a folk extravaganza with people from all over the country travelling to enjoy the musical delights in the city.  Co-produced by Derby LIVE and PR Productions, 2019 saw a change from the usual festival format to the creation of Derby Folk Weekender which took place in venues surrounding the city’s market place. The programme was jam-packed with music, dance acts and fringe activities from Friday to Sunday.

It's been a super busy September and its vanished quicker than quick and without wanting to get reprimanded the C word is fast approaching... and we have lots of different workshops to help you make your handmade Christmas this year most of which are in November.

With our exciting exhibitions and events you're sure to find something to brighten even the darkest of winter days. Pick up a copy in the museum, in arts boxes around Derby, or view here
