Now that it's officially spring, it's time to start looking ahead to the many outdoor folk festivals that will be coming our way during 2014's sunny months.

A limited number of early bird weekend passes are on sale now. They cost $106.68 including service fees and taxes (student or senior passes are a total of $95.90). This is the 45th instalment of the festival.
