This year’s Festival runs from Saturday 24 May to Saturday 7 June, with 60+ music, arts and walking events to inspire, transport and exhilarate in the spectacular northern Yorkshire Dales

We were delighted with the number of people who travelled the length and breadth of the Dales on a Februaryish afternoon to attend our Volunteers’ Afternoon at Reeth Memorial Hall.

Fraser Wilson joins the Festival team as Artistic Director.

The stalwart of Swaledale and long-time conductor of Muker Silver Band.
