PLANS Are underway for the 20th Teignmouth Folk Festival which will start with a concert on Friday night June. 22 We plan to have the City of Plymouth Pipe Band
leading the procession from East Cliff on Saturday morning, followed by the Morris teams. 2017 saw a record number of dance teams, including
for the first time a team from Wales who have expressed a wish to come again in 2018. The Morris teams love to come to Teignmouth as we have so many good dance spots, including The Triangle where we have our outside stage.
