MALMÖ FOLK FESTIVAL
Malmö Folk Festival samlar och manifesterar världens folkmusik i en enda stor fest. Vi vill också lyfta och stärka alla de olika slags aktörer som jobbar med detta året runt. Festivalen startade 2018 och är alltså ett samarbete mellan en lång rad arrangörer, studieförbund, musikhögskola och folkhögskola. Vi förenas och arbetar medvetet kring jämställdhet, mångfald, tillgänglighet inom folkmusikgenren. Vi har program för barn, seniorer och allt däremellan!

Här nedan kan du hitta några av de som varit inblandade i festivalen under åren. Vi välkomnar gärna fler till vårt fina samarbete!
