Lowell Folk Festival

Lowell Folk Festival

The Lowell Folk Festival claims to be the biggest free folk festival in the United States. It is made up of three days of traditional music, dance, craft demonstrations, street parades, dance parties, and ethnic foods. All of this is presented on six outdoor stages throughout the city of Lowell, Massachusetts.

The Lowell Folk Festival is one of many festivals in the U.S. that got its start from the National Folk Festival. Lowell hosted the event from 1987 to 1989, and the locals continued this festival starting in 1990.
