Folkestone Songwriting Festival 2026

Folkestone Songwriting Festival returns with an exciting programme of stand alone masterclasses, community projects and events. Alongside the all important writing workshops the festival will feature community events and projects, concerts and welcoming social gatherings under the theme of Wintering. We will explore and advise on how to keep the seasonal blues at bay through connection and community.

 Taking place from late January til February 2026 we have developed something special for our diverse and dynamic creative artists featuring award winning songwriters, musicians and industry professionals including multi award winning artists Hannah White, Findlay Napier, Nina Clark, Josie Matcham, Pete Astor and many more –  this year’s festival is not to be missed!

Spaces are limited, so make sure to secure your festival pass now to avoid disappointment
