Fiddle n Folk Fest

Last year’s Fest drew hundreds of foot-tapping, hand-clapping, dancing music lovers from throughout southern New England. Bring your family and see old friends, meet new ones, hear steadfast band favorites, and listen in awe to some newcomers.

This year promises a great variety of music including traditional, swamp fiddle, bluegrass, celtic, cajun, and twin fiddles. Performers include Pendragon, Bluegrass Invitation Band, Magnolia, Andy Grover, Golden Bantams, Shamanic, John Fuzek, Mr. Whodo, Barry Brown, Sunday Night Jammers, Bay Spring Folk, and of course, Old Fiddlers Club of Rhode Island. We also welcome storytellers, including Len Cabral, to our new storytelling stage this year.

Join the all fiddlers jam from 9:30 - 11:00 with Michelle Kaminsky.

Craft vendors will sell their goods, food trucks will fill you up, lemonade makers will quench your thirst, and kids activities will keep the little ones happily moving to the beat of the music.

The day’s events are free, thanks to generous support from RI State Council on the Arts, Wildflour Vegan Bakery, Barrington Public Library, The Bay Team, Friends of the Bay Spring Community Center, Barrington Recreation and Leisure Services, RIDEM, and many generous individuals.
