The National Folk Festival will feature over 300 of the nation’s finest traditional musicians, dancers and craftspeople in performances, workshops and demonstrations, plus children’s activities, savory Southern and ethnic cuisines and craft brews, participatory dancing, storytelling, parades and more.
