Hello all - we wanted to let everyone know what’s happening this year as we know things have been quiet of late. Unfortunately, due to lack of funding and various logistical and personal challenges, we’re not able to put on the full festival as we have in previous years. 👇

However, there will still be live folk music across two days at @humberstgallery, along with singaround sessions at @minerva_hull on the Friday night and all day on the Sunday. We’re also hoping some dancers will join us to add a bit of colour to the area on the Saturday. 👇

If any venues would like to put on their own acts under the HFMF banner, they’re very welcome, though they’ll need to cover their costs. While this will be a more grassroots/indoor event, we still want to keep the festival's spirit alive, so any help would be much appreciated. 🩷
