Date: 
Sunday, 24 February 2019
Opening: 
Monday, 4 February 2019 - 12:45pm

This is the most important date in every London fiddler's calendar; a chance to meet friends, learn new tunes, see some amazing playing, buy some fiddle stuff. People come from all over the South East to be there- you'll rarely meet so many fiddlers in one place!

As usual, there will be a series of afternoon workshops, a fiddle contest, a session in the bar, and an evening concert featuring a wide range of performers.

And YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE A FIDDLE PLAYER! The concert is open to everyone and you're guaranteed a welcoming and friendly atmosphere, and a great set of performances.

·         Germa Adan (Haiti)

·         Emily Askew (English)
