Introduction

Welcome to Festival on the Moor Official Website.

The festival celebrates the rich cultural heritage of the North York Moors National Park from Moor to Coast through traditional music, song, dance and music from other genres too. Each year you will find a rich tapestry of performers from jazz to folk rock in events held around England's largest National Park - The North Yorks Moors.

Venues range from village green and open moorland to pubs, tea shops and village halls.

The Festival on the Moor was first held in 2002 to celebrate the 50th Aniversary of the North York Moors National Park. In 2003 it was established as a non profit organisation with aims to benefit the local community through preserving old traditions, education and tourism while helping foster understanding with other cultures adjacent to the region.
