Press Release - LEIGH FOLK FESTIVAL 2017 (general).docx
The 26th annual Leigh Folk Festival is fast approaching, and final touches to many months' planning are in progress. It's the largest free folk festival in the UK attracting an attendance of up to 20,000 across the weekend, but still entirely run by volunteers. Press releases and images are attached - any coverage you can provide would be gratefully received!
We have also just released a double vinyl LP (including download code), commemorating 25 years of the Festival, and featuring contributions from performers past and present. If you would like a copy for review, radio play etc. then please let me know.
Thanks, and best regards,
Paul Collier
Artistic Director
Leigh Folk Festival
