Richmond MayFest is a festival of historical and traditional music and dancing - in the perfect setting of Richmond, North Yorkshire. It all takes place every early May Bank Holiday weekend, so our next MayFest is May 3rd - May 6th 2024.

 

Our venues include Richmond Castle, St Mary's Parish Church,  The Station, Richmond Town Hall, Richmond School, and St Agatha's in Easby as well as the Market Place and the streets around the town centre. 

​

Richmond MayFest is a community event. Lots of events are totally free, and all ticketed events offer reduced prices for local residents - that's from postcodes DL9, DL10 and DL11.

 

We are always on the lookout for people to help with MayFest.   Please get in touch if you'd like to be involved. For example: 

 

• You'd like to be part of organising Richmond MayFest now and in the future. 

• You are in a local choir, music group, dance side or anything like that and want to take part...

• You are a venue and want to host an event or make some of our musicians or dancers welcome over the weekend...​

• You are a business or individual and can help the event out with sponsorship or in kind

• You'd like to volunteer as a Steward over the weekend
