Sydney’s coolest little winter urban festival takes place in Surry Hills in the heart of the city. Experience an intimate and up-close urban folk gathering showcasing the diversity of folk music through an especially curated suite of bespoke concerts.
Sydney Folk Festival will feature over 30 acts presenting folk in its broadest sense. You’ll experience some brilliant contemporary and traditional folk, roots, acoustic and world music across three venues. From Tom Mann Theatre with its intimate atmosphere to the lively Gaelic Club and the up-close acoustic space in Quakers’ Hall you’ll be spoilt for choice.
All SydFolkFest23 venues are just a stone’s throw from Central Rail in Devonshire and Chalmers Streets and, within a short walk of each other making it easy to move between concerts, catch up with friends or just hang out taking in the atmosphere. You'll also find surprise, pop-up live performances on the streets around our venues so watch out for those too. You never know what you might chance across.
What a way to warm the heart and nourish the soul! Join us at SydFolkFest23 to enjoy some truly wonderful live music in our inner-city urban setting. There’s no better way to find your folk. Whether you like it a little bit trad, a little bit revival or spiced up with modern grooves and catchy hooks you’ll find plenty to engage your senses.
A range of tickets from season tickets (covering whole weekend – two nights and two days) to day and evening passes are currently on sale.
