Become a member of Isle of Man Fire & Folk Festivals
We hope you enjoy this year’s festival which we’ve planned to be bigger and better than ever! You’ll appreciate it takes a lot of creativity and dedication from several individuals and organisations to pull it all together.
So that we have been able to include as many people as possible and make our own decisions, this year we became our very own not-for-profit organisation, branding ourselves as ‘Isle of Man Fire and Folk Festivals’. Our purpose and mission stay the same: to celebrate Manx culture and its traditions. It’s hoped that by doing this via the spectacles of the Oie Voaldyn and Oie Houney festivals, we also help inform our audiences as well as entertain them!
The IoM Fire and Folk Festivals’ committee takes its responsibilities seriously. We understand that to put on these amazing extravaganzas, everyone involved needs to work as a team, join in with all the workshops and rehearsals, and be as glorious as possible on the day! So, as part of our ‘re-boot’, we have invited everyone who takes part to pay a £10 annual subscription and become a member, which gives them a greater sense of belonging and gives them opportunity to suggest changes and innovation.
Becoming independent also means we can raise money to ensure the high standards we set ourselves are maintained and to secure funding for next year, and the year after, and the year after that!
