Each January, the Anchorage Folk Festival features performances by more than 120 acts from throughout Alaska and around the world. Singers, dancers, storytellers, and a variety of groups perform traditional and original material in styles ranging from folk to Celtic, bluegrass, jazz, klezmer and more. Guest artists from outside bring outstanding performances, workshops, and dances.

The concerts and workshops are open to the public and are FREE.

The festival raises money through memberships and fund raisers such as dances and our annual Fall fundraiser event.

Anchorage Folk Festival, Inc. is a non-proft, member-supported volunteer organization supporting folk arts in the community. Our goal is to support, encourage and promote music and dance through performance and education
