The Bards Are Back! Join AWEN for a mystical Samhain evening of fiery folk, folklore, myths and music at St Peter’s Arts Centre.

The Bards Are Back In Town!

Join this creative troupe of musical storytellers for a mystical evening to mark the ancient Celtic celebration of Samhain.

AWEN takes the methods of the medieval Bards, rebooting them into modern-day sets of fiery Festival Folk.

Skilful story-led lyrics mix with catchy folk-pop melodies, and hooks you’ll be humming for weeks! The band brings a folklore vibe too, with material inspired by the tales of Wessex and Wales, and the myths of Merlin.

Samhain is said to be the one time of year when the visible and invisible realms meet.

Visit both of them in a single night, through the words, music and musicianship of The Bardic Band!

Our gathering, in St Peter’s Arts Centre in the heart of Marlborough, has strictly limited tickets.
