The Chippenham Folk Festival takes place from Friday 28th to Monday 31st May 2010. Celebrating its 39th year and having seen many changes since its beginnings in the village of Lacock many years ago, this festival still retains its 'village' atmosphere, and is packed with song, dance, workshops and dance displays. Over 200 events take place within the town centre.

The main ceilidh and concert events take place in the park by the river. Practically every pub and venue in the town is used for a wide range of sessions, workshops and smaller concerts and dances.

Line-up

Acts announced include Brian Peters, Chris Foster, Craig:Morgan:Robson, Debby McClatchy, Hanging Johnny, Hoover the Dog, INU, Nancy Kerr & James Fagan, Jeff Warner, John Alderslade, Lynne Heraud & Pat Turner, Mick Ryan & Paul Downes, Pete Coe, Roger Watson, Roy Harris, Sam Lee, The Claque, and Vic & Tina Smith.

There will also be a full programme of children's events (for season ticket holders only).

There is a large craft marquee, catering facilities and an open air arena in the park. The high street and historic market square are both pedestrianised, and are used throughout the weekend for busking, street theatre and processions and there's a huge street fair on Monday.
