Set against the picturesque backdrop of Gallagher Park in Edmonton, Alberta, the Edmonton Folk Festival 2024 is a celebration of global folk music that has evolved spectacularly since its humble beginnings in 1980. Originally starting with just a single staff member and a dedicated team of 300 volunteers, this not-for-profit society has grown into one of the foremost folk festivals in the world. Now supported by a passionate volunteer force of over 2,000 members, the festival is fully committed to bringing the finest folk music talents from around the globe to the heart of Edmonton. Join us in this vibrant community event that promises to be a landmark in the cultural calendar, championing the authenticity and diversity of folk traditions.
