About the Children’s Entertainment

Warwick Folk Festival is proudly a festival for the whole family. Bringing generations together through music, dance, creativity and shared experiences is at the very heart of who we are — and that’s why we put real care and energy into creating a top programme of activities for children and young people of all ages.

From babies and toddlers discovering their first festival sounds, to teens finding their own creative spaces, we make sure there’s always something to entertain our younger folk!

All children’s activities take place in the main festival village, so families are never far from the heart of the action. While activities are designed with children in mind, children must be accompanied at all times so that everyone can enjoy the festival safely and happily.

We believe folk is something to be shared across generations — grandparents, parents, teens and toddlers all together — and we’re incredibly proud of the welcoming, lively and creative children’s programme we’ve built.

Even better — it’s great value for families:
 – Children under 14 attend the festival free
 – Youth tickets (ages 15–17) are available with a large discount

Come and make memories together — sing, dance, create and discover — because folk is for everyone, and everyone is welcome here.
