Vancouver Folk Music Festival

An important cultural and artistic touchstone for Vancouver, and one of the last bastions of the bohemian values of pre-Expo Vancouver. This event brings world-class talent to the stunning venue if Jericho beach, showcasing beauty, soul, and passion against the stunning backdrop of the North Shore mountains.
Incredible music is just the beginning, around the fringes of this festival are incredible art, jewellery, clothing, and food vendors who bring the site to life.
Accessible, and inclusive, this event takes great pains to make everyone feel welcome.

I only went on Sunday but it was a lovely day. If I’m being honest I go more so for the community and atmosphere. Everyone is so happy to be there and enjoying themselves no matter who they are. The food trucks are great with diverse selection and vendors are always fun. And of course there is amazing music by talents from all over the world all over the park. Love the Folk Fest!

Last weekend was our first time at the festival. It was so great. Shout out to all those volunteers who were smiling and kind and sorting all our garbage! Great food trucks. Fabulous entertainment. Friendly people. Super family event!

Tremendous. Outstanding effort by hundreds of people who I'm sure have plenty to do on either end and throughout the three days of the event. It warms the heart and restores faith in humanity and community to see a coming together of such proportion. Bravo! Oh, and the music was pretty damned good, too!

Great Festival! Had the experience of a lifetime here. Artists from diverse backgrounds, delicious food options, and other fun activities like yoga and massage really make it an amazing event to be at. Prices are reasonable.
