2024 is PFF’s 35th Anniversary!
Canada’s longest running FREE Folk Festival is now in its 35th year! More than 15,000 people come together to enjoy our region’s second largest cultural event. Mark your calendars August 15-18 for three days of music, community building and pure joy as we come together on the hillside at Nicholls Oval Park next to the mighty Otonabee River. As a volunteer-run registered charity, your community leadership and support is vital to the success of promoting and preserving this cultural gem that’s inclusive, welcoming and accessible to everyone. 2023’s Peterborough Folk Festival welcomed 30 artists, including 12 local performers. The lineup featured full gender parity and strong diversity, including Indigenous artists, artists of colour and artists from the LGBTQ community.
PFF is actively seeking additional food vendors
and sponsorships for the 2024 festival
