Overview
This Festival is held at the Lowther Pavilion Theatre & Gardens, West Beach, Lytham St Annes U.K. and is the newest addition to the Lowther Pavilion Theatre & Gardens annual festival calendar, following the successful seasonal run of Lowther’s Folk Club. It celebrates the maritime heritage of the Fylde Coast of England, where local shanty groups keep the region’s seaside and fishing traditions vibrant and alive.
The Folk, Roots & Maritime Festival is a passion project for Lowther, aiming to provide a platform for touring folk musicians and storytellers to showcase their craft and the rich heritage that inspires them. By offering a free to enter festival for the public to access all acts, Lowther hopes to inspire both seasoned enthusiasts and the new generation in celebrating the diverse forms of folk and maritime music.
The first Lowther’s Folk, Roots and Maritime Folk Festival was held July 27th and 28th, 2024
