Mark your calendars for the weekend of June 28th and 29th, 2025, as the much-anticipated Leigh Folk Festival makes its grand return! Set against the charming backdrop of Leigh-on-Sea, this vibrant event promises an unforgettable celebration of folk music, arts, and culture.

For nearly 32 years Leigh Folk Festival has been a highlight in the Leigh-on-Sea and Southend events calendar. However, the organising committee has made the hard decision to take a fallow year in 2024.

We’ve partnered with 20+ amazing local businesses who’ve all donated a prize for our first annual ‘The Big Prize Draw’. A winner for each prize will be drawn at random. Draw closes 4 July.
