About English Folk

The English Folk Expo app is a bespoke planning tool designed for use by delegates registered to attend English Folk Expo, 21st - 24th October 2021. The app includes all the info you require to navigate your way around the showcase: info on all artists and their set times, info on all delegates, info on the trade stands exhibiting in the conference, a map to all venues, eateries and hotels, a playlist of all artists performing at this year's showcase, a planning tool to create your personalised schedule of the showcase, and a chat function allowing you to network with other delegates attending the event.

English Folk Expo (EFEx) is a charity which supports the English folk, roots and acoustic music sector through a variety of projects and initiatives.
Each October we invite 180 music industry representatives to Manchester to watch more than 40 of the UK's best folk artists perform over three days. Our annual showcase event runs alongside the public facing festival - Manchester Folk Festival.
