FIVE DAYS until the 26th PORTSMOUTH MARITIME FOLK FESTIVAL on the 26th and 27th!
Below: Tickets! Schedules! Weather! Online streaming!
SATURDAY CONCERT TICKETS: First, please keep in mind that the entire festival is free. Daytime events require no tickets or anything else. But in order to manage attendance at the Saturday concert, we do request that you reserve a space for yourself.
BUT! If you are a performer or a volunteer, you have a ticket reserved for you already. If you have a +1, you should get a ticket for them. If you donated to the summer fundraising drive (1 August–7 September), you have two tickets set aside already. If in doubt, ask.
We will admit walk-ins up to the capacity of the North Church, but getting a ticket is a good idea. You can reserve your tickets at https://www.zeffy.com/en-US/
The FESTIVAL SCHEDULE has changed a little bit. You can get all the latest info at https://pmffest.org/2026-
If you can’t attend in person, the festival will be STREAMING ONLINE. Follow us on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@
Which brings us to the subject of WEATHER. We are a rain-or-shine festival, partly outdoors. The forecast is looking… fun, but it has been changing daily.
- Bring an umbrella. If the rain isn’t crazy and is mostly vertical, we will keep the venues as-is. Performers will be under tents; audience should manage their own comfort.
- Bookmark the festival info page. If the rain is crazy and/or horizontal, we will move to alternate locations. Those will be announced on Facebook and posted on the festival info page.
- In the unlikely event of a storm that makes it unsafe to travel, we will fall back to an online-only festival, as in 2021. You will be able to join us on Zoom or YouTube; we will make that call by Wednesday night.
See you this weekend!
