Performer registration is now officially closed, and we have over 100 acts ready to play the festival. However, we always get last minute line-up changes and cancellations, so we are still accepting applications to perform and performers will be placed on the schedule as space becomes available.
It takes some time to work through the registrations and get the line-up set, but I will post the schedule as soon as I can. It usually is finished in the first few days of June. Stay tuned!
Registration has begun for the 2011 festival. Please go to the performer’s page to learn more or to register to perform. Registration will close May 15th.
This year’s festival will be June 25th and 26th. Mark you calendars now! Performers, registration will begin in March. Go to the performer’s page to add you name to the performers email list and be notified as soon as registration opens. Otherwise, keep an eye here for more information!
After months of planning, we are happy and excited that just hours remain until the beginning of the 2010 Flagstaff Folk Festival. We’ll have everything in place first thing Saturday morning for a great weekend of music and fun in one of the largest events of its kind in Arizona.
If you’re still making plans to attend check out the ‘details’ link above to get all the information you’ll need for a great weekend. If you’re on the fence about coming….WHY? 4 Stages, 110+ acts, workshops, jams, history, food, and fun, all under the pines in the great cool summer weather of Flagstaff.
We’ll see you this weekend!
We’ve received a number of calls and emails from folks concerned about the recent forest fires around Flagstaff impacting the festival. At this point, the main active fire, The Schultz Fire, is on the other side of the city and the prevailing winds will continue to lead the smoke away from town and the festival grounds. I anticipate no major impacts on the festival at this point. There is no smoke in town and no threat to buildings within the city limits. Please email me with any direct concerns – folkfestival@ffotm.net. Looking forward to a great weekend!
UPDATE (6/22 8 PM): There has been a smoke advisory issued for East Flagstaff overnight but at this point there has been no smoke in Downtown or West Flagstaff, where the festival will take place. We still anticipate clear air and good times at the festival this weekend. I will continue to update the webpage as the week goes on.
