At Moseley Folk & Arts, we pride ourselves on delivering big names without a big price tag. Our team has long prioritised bringing incredible live music to Moseley Park and keeping it accessible for the community we serve. But what does that look like in real terms? Let’s break it down.
Starting with Friday night, we’ve stacked the lineup with artists that, if you were to see them individually, would quickly add up. We picked just 5 of our Friday acts and ran the numbers; you would spend £155.15 to see them all. In comparison, a Friday ticket to Moseley Folk comes in at just £65.40. That’s a saving of £89.75, and comes with the added bonus that they’re in the same place, on the same day, so no extra travel or hassle.
We keep this momentum going throughout the weekend. Choose 7 artists from our Saturday bill and it would set you back £182.30 to see them on their independent tours. A Saturday ticket at Moseley Folk? Just £69.76, saving you £112.54.
On Sunday, things really step up a notch. To see 6 of our Sunday lineup individually would cost a huge £193.55. A Sunday ticket at Moseley Folk is, once again, £65.40 – meaning you’re saving an impressive £128.15. You’re getting a full day of music, food and the idyllic surroundings of Moseley Park for the price of seeing just one or two of those artists individually.
Look at these numbers across the weekend, and the savings become even more apparent. For 18 artists, you’d spend £531 to see them all on their own. A weekend ticket to Moseley Folk Festival is currently £177.50 – a total saving of £353.50!
Furthermore, something special about Moseley Folk, something that you don’t get elsewhere, is that our artists don’t overlap – meaning you get to see everyone on the lineup. Plus, our two stages are next to each other, so no trekking across a field or racing to catch the start of a set!
Beyond the numbers, festivals are great for discovering a new favourite artist. You come for one name and leave with five new ones, as well as the ease of one location and the vibe of a festival crowd. And our saving calculations don’t even account for the further 32 artists we have billed, our diverse and engaging arts programme, artisan market, mouth-watering food traders, workshops and more.
We price our festival competitively and strive to make attendance accessible for all. Our ticket prices are tiered, meaning the earlier you buy, the cheaper it will be. The prices quoted above are correct at the time of writing, but will increase as we get closer to the Moseley Folk weekend, so grab a ticket now to secure the biggest savings.
See you in Moseley Park!
