Welcome to the festival!

Welcome to the Champaign-Urbana Folk and Roots Festival. Our mission is to support and promote the folk arts in Central Illinois by hosting an annual festival as well as year-round concerts and outreach events. The scope is broad - you'll find Cajun, old-time, bluegrass, folk, traditional jazz, blues, klezmer, Irish, western swing, storytelling, song circles, shape-note singing, traditional dance, arts and crafts, jamming, family activities, workshops, and much more. As a not-for-profit organization, we depend on the support of our community. Click here to volunteer your time or to donate!
