The 2027 Auckland Folk Festival presents an incredible musical journey spanning the depth and breadth of folk music and dance from Aotearoa and around the world. An annual destination for families and friends for over 50 years, the three-day spectacular is a chance to step out of the hustle and bustle of daily life and step into a world of music, dance, food, workshops and more.
