Denver Windmill stages mini folk festival

Denver Windmill is the venue for a mini free folk festival this month.

It will take place on Sunday, May 25, from 11am and will run throughout the day.

There will be sing-around, open mic and jam sessions and the organisers have said all musicians will be welcome to join in. Pop-up performers will have 20-minute slots which can be booked on the day.

As well as performer sets there will be ceilidh dancing, jig doll demonstration and dancing, step dancing and a competition for the best step dance and jig doll dancer.

There will also be tales and poetry readings throughout the day and the on site cafe will be open.

For those who prefer something a little stronger, there will also be a beer festival taking place. The venue is Blackstone Engine Bar at Denver Windmill with sessions on a main stage, the mill green (weather permitting) and cafe courtyard.
