20 Years of The Long Run, with Special Guests

We’re thrilled to launch the very first Leigh Folk Festival Signature Concert, celebrating 20 years of The Long Run, one of the area’s most loved bands.

Set in the beautiful surroundings of Leigh Library Gardens, this special one‑off show sees The Long Run joined by friends and collaborators including Emerald Hill, Taylor Del Mundo, Rosie Barrett Dulake, and Bella Rose Manning — with a few surprises planned just for this night.

The band will also be launching their brand‑new album, available exclusively at the show.

Every ticket sold helps Leigh Folk Festival continue to bring free arts, culture, and community celebration to our town.
