Bring a piece of folk history to your home with this Folk Festival 1965 at the Royal Albert Hall programme cover poster.

Taking place 19- 20 February 1965, the Royal Albert Hall, whose reputation as a live music venue was widely known since opening in 1871, presented one style of performance for its Hall debut on 1 January 1927  when the English Folk Dance Society held a performance of, as its name implies, English folk dance.

The event was recorded and televised on BBC Two at 18:30 on 10 March 1965 with commentator Geoffrey Wheeler.
