Appledore Music Festival - live music, workshops and ceilidh in North Devon

Appledore Music Festival

29 May to 3 June 2025.

The 2025 festival is over. We’ll be back in 2026! Provisional dates are 28 May to 1 June.

The feedback has been phenomenal. All the venues had more (and happier) people than usual. Special thanks to the Seagate Hotel for putting on Song Box buskers as this was something different and created a great atmosphere for the festival.

The festival organisers (Russ, Louise, Adrian, Toby and Nick) would like to thank all the venues for putting on events and, especially, everyone who attended the events and helped make the festival truly special. Thank you!

And thanks too to all the musicians who played and sang their hearts out.
