English Folk Expo

The English Folk Expo app is a bespoke planning tool designed for use by delegates registered to attend English Folk Expo, 19th - 21st March 2026.

The app includes all the info you require to navigate your way around the showcase: info on all artists and their set times, info on all delegates, info on the trade stands exhibiting in the conference, a map to all venues, eateries and hotels, a playlist of all artists performing at this year's showcase and a planning tool to create your personalised schedule of the showcase.

English Folk Expo (EFEx) is a charity which supports the English folk, roots and acoustic music sector through a variety of projects and initiatives.

We invited 180 music industry representatives to Manchester to watch more than 40 of the UK's best folk artists perform over three days.
