What a busy weekend it will be in Weymouth, Dorset on the weekend beginning Friday 5th June 2009!Not only will the Wessex Folk Festival 2009 be rocking and a reeling around Hope Square, Weymouth but celebrations to mark the 65th anniversary of D Day will also be taking place in and around the Nothe Gardens and the Nothe Fort on the 6th June 2008. It will include, among other things, a picnic, historical re-enactment and concerts.
We wish Jane and her team all the very best in their endeavours, and look forward to the impending symbiosis!
Another bit of news is that the “Elevators” will be playing on our open stage at approx 1pm on Sunday 7th June. The Elevators consist of Stevie Garden and Timmy Wheeler from the Crack with Rodney Teague and Andy Taylor from Pond Life. Anyone familiar with local music scenes will not want to miss the inevitable “wow” of this jazzy/folkie fusion band!
Without doubt, those looking for gigs, whats on or things to do in June 2009 around Weymouth Dorset can look forward to a wonderful variety of entertainments.
As ever, keep an eye on the website as WFF 2009 unfurls (www.wessexfolkfestival.co.uk). (The photo was taken in Hope Square, Weymouth, Dorset during the successful Wessex Folk Festival 2008.)
Bye for now
