Traditional Dance and Song
England's heritage of folk music, song, dance and traditional customs is one of the richest in the world and is especially strong in Lancashire.
The English Folk Dance and Song Society (EFDSS) exists to preserve English folk dances, songs and music, make them known, and encourage their practice.
Lancashire Folk supports the aims of EFDSS to preserve the traditions of English dance and song.
Lancashire Folk exists to support the many Folk Dance groups in and around Lancashire.
Since Covid, its role has been to concentrate on helping groups continue in increasingly difficult times.
We aim to support many local dance clubs and traditional dance and music groups.
We financially support their weekly and monthly classes enjoyed by their local dancers.
We financially support their evening dances enjoyed by dancers from all around the north-west
This in turn supports musicians from a much wider field.
We maintain an up-to-date diary of events (see the Diary Dates Page) and provide contact information for groups all around.
