Each January, the Anchorage Folk Festival features performances by more than 120 acts from throughout Alaska and around the world.

Singers, dancers, storytellers, and a variety of groups perform traditional and original material in styles ranging from folk to Celtic, bluegrass, jazz, klezmer and more. Guest artists from outside bring outstanding performances, workshops, and dances.

The concerts and workshops are open to the public and are FREE.

The festival raises money through memberships and fund raisers such as dances and our annual Novemberfest event.
