The National Anti-Folk Festival (NAFF) is a thing for everybody who, for whatever reason, doesn't want to (or like us can't) go to the National Folk Festival (or at least not every day), as well as being for bands/performers etc. who, for whatever reason, didn't get accepted to, or didn't want to, play at the National Folk Festival.

'Folk' bands and fans are not excluded, are in fact very welcome. The NAFF also refers to the Anti-Folk Movement but has no actual connection to it.

All events at this years festival will be separately ticketed or free entry. For the first time Smith’s will be closing for one day of Easter, the Sunday, so that we and some members of staff can attend the other festival.
