Start with a beginner’s course in a schottis and then don’t miss Allspelet, more amazing each year.

This year we’re not live-tweeting Umefolk like previous years unfortunately, but please follow us on instagram or facebook!

Umefolk is one of several festivals who received extra funding to improve gender equal booking!
We always have roughly equal numbers male/female artists but there is much yet to be done in terms of booking big, expensive names, and build networks for female artists & composers. https://t.co/Xp5gWIKoPQ
