​The setting is changing, but the genres remain the same! The Spokane Fall Folk Festival Steering Committee has decided to bring the 2020 Festival to the safety of everyone’s homes with a virtual program. The Fall Folk Virtual Festival will be available on the radio and on our website.

​We are thrilled to announce that Spokane Public Radio (KPBX 91.1 FM) will present a retrospective of their previous Festival Broadcasts from 2000 to 2019 on Saturday, November 14 from 11:00 am to 1:00 pm, and Sunday, November 15 from 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm.

The Virtual Festival will also provide pre-recorded performances of entertainers selected from this year's applicants streamed on our website and Facebook page. We will post details on our website and our Facebook page
(www.facebook.com/Fall-Folk-Festival-Spokane) as they become available.

Moreover, in keeping with our tradition of having vendors at our festivals, this year's Virtual Festival will have a Festival Market Place where you can shop for unique and very special items. The Festival Market Place will appear on our website beginning Saturday, November 14.


While our expenses for the 2020 Virtual Festival will be less than in previous years, we still need your support. We invite you to become a 2020 Friend of the Festival by donating to our Virtual Festival. Click the Donate to Support the Festival button and become a Friend of the Festival. Friends of the Festival will be thanked on the Festival website and in the Spokane Folklore Society’s newsletter.

Check our website periodically for updates on the performers and vendors, and to make a donation.

Finally, please spread the word about the Virtual Festival by telling your friends and family. Recommendations from folks who have attended the Festival are the best publicity we have.

​Fast forward to 2021 … the Folk Festival Steering Committee is moving forward with plans for a live Festival to celebrate our 26th Anniversary. We will post updates as details become available.
