"It has been another superb year, we could not have asked for anything more. It may have been a mixed bag weather-wise but everyone has embraced the festival spirit," she said.On Monday night, Highland rockers the 'Red Hot Chilli Pipers' ended the festival, which has seen music fans from across the UK and the world descend on Shropshire.
The festival has been running in Shrewsbury since 2006, but it was a direct successor to the Bridgnorth Folk Festival, which was first held in the county in 1997."We are absolutely coming back next year," said Jo, adding that tickets for the Shrewsbury Folk Festival 2024 are set to go on sale on Friday, September 1.
