We're working on 2010 information.

We're in the early planning stages of the 2010 festival; as soon as we have final information, we'll put it up here. In the meantime, we've left the 2009 information up so you can get a feel for the fun you'll have at the Albuquerque Folk Festival.

Morning Welcoming Entertainment

Chinese Martial Artists Dragon Frog Fiddlers


10 am to 11 am

Every year, you'll find reasons to get to the festival early. This year, four venues are starting up on Saturday at 10 a.m. with some special entertainment. Kids and their parents (and anyone else who likes good music) will enjoy the Frog Fiddlers at Stage 2. If you're more into accordions, check out the Albuquerque Accordion Club at the Demo Stage. Latin music? Try Mezcla Latina at the Jam with the Band tent. And, as always, the Chinese Martial Arts group will be doing their exciting Dragon Dance.
