The 2010 Oxford Folk Festival

Balliol College 1922
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo


This view shows just one of the many venues for the 2010 Oxford Folk Festival, a weekend long festival of music, song and dancing including a grand parade through the city on Saturday morning. Thousands of residents and tourists looked on as hundreds of performers from all around the country provided the entertainment. I was there with my fellow dancers and musicians from Whitethorn Morris - a lively team of women clog dancers and their mixed band from Harrow.

Although it was early April, the sun shone brightly and crowds thronged the streets to watch as we provided jigs and polkas for the clog dancers. It was a lovely day to remember and I hope very much that the organisers of this annual event will continue.
