What to expect? – What is the “Knees-up Weekender”?
The Knees-up Weekender is a camp to accommodate young-adult campers who are either already folk campers, or who are completely new and want an opportunity to experience what it’s all about without jumping straight into a week-long camp!
This self-catered, weekend hall camp will capture the unique communal aspects of folk camps that we know and love – music-making, dancing, games, and socialising – whilst also offering later morning starts and late night evenings with lively dancing and classic Folk Camps games.
Situated at the lovely Little Horwood Village Hall with a local pub and proximity to Milton Keynes, the camp is ideal to travel to regardless of where our campers are based.
It’s a great chance to invite those friends who you think will grow to love folk camps, as well as for those who are looking for an extra (and cheaper!) dose of the folk camps fun before the summer kicks off!
The camping is on the recreation field, with facilities in the village hall including a kitchen and showers. The pub is just next door and are happy to host a music session, and serve wood fired pizzas!
A WhatsApp group will be made nearer the time to share info and help sort lift sharing. This event starts on Friday afternoon/evening and continues until Sunday at 5pm – the prefect weekend away
Sorry, no under-18s at this event.
