We receive a great number of requests for bookings and spots and we thank
anyone contacting us for their interest in Upton Folk Festival. However,
due to the sheer volume of enquiries from performers, it is not always
possible to send a reply. If successful, we will contact artistes by email
(or phone if you have included a contact number) by March 2012.
