FOLK FESTIVAL - Kington's first folk festival will be held on June 18-19, featuring appearances by the Levellers, Hoover the Dog and Stanley Accrington. The two main events are a Friday night folk club concert at the Burton Hotel and an open air concert the following evening at Kington Town's football ground, featuring the Levellers. Arthur Hyde, the festival's chairman, is keen to bring such acts to the town. He is also organising Open Mic sessions at the Burton where, on Sunday, May 30, there will be a special in concert appearance by a living legend of the folk and blues scene, John Renbourn. Information about the festival is available at www.kington-folk-festival.com or by telephoning the box office on Kington 231401. Tickets for the Renbourn concert may be obtained from the Burton or by calling 340502.
