English Music Festival, Dartington

On 22nd May 2026 to 25th May 2026

The 2026 English Music Festival will be held in the fabulous venue of Dartington Hall - Dartington village is very close to Totnes. Concerts will take place in the mediaeval Great Hall and talks in the Ship Studio.

Dartington is immensely appropriate for the EMF, being steeped in the history of English music, but the beautiful and atmospheric location, set as it is in gorgeous rolling hills with riverside walks, will enhance the experience!

The full programme is now available.

Reviews

  • Brilliant day - Very pleasant day out, VERY well organised and friendly teams (train and ferry, especially in social distancing times). Would do it again and add the boat cruise.
  • Great!! - We all had such a fantastic day out. From the wonderful, helpful and friendly staff at Paignton to the quick and easy ferry crossing and the brilliant steamboat trip. Our captain on the steamboat was just amazing, so funny and full of brilliant facts and local knowledge.
  • Absolutely fabulous experience - The whole day was fabulous with great weather and steam trains. The line is one of the most scenic you will ever experience and is a must visit if in the area. I will definitely be back again :-)
