Q&A

Castlefest’s first day was amazing!

With shows from bands like Harmony Glen , The SIDH , and Sunfire and a really cool Q&A with organisers from Mediaval , Middeleeuws Winschoten & Fantasy Festival , Fantasy Forest and of course Castlefest self made the day unforgettable.



Be quick, We each have only four badges left…

It will be no secret that Castlefest is an international festival.

Not only do the visitors come from all over the world to enjoy these 4 days of fantasy heaven, also the bands come from the far corners of Europe.

Noticeable is a small group of bands from the Iberian Peninsula, two of which are new to Castlefest: Drusuna- Ritual Pagan Folk from Porto, Vael from Madrid and Trobar de Morte from Barcelona (previously at Castlefest in 2015). Not all are well-known bands in these regions but they will bring you a beautiful mix of pagan folk tunes.

Even if you don’t know these bands or are unfamiliar with Pagan Folk, these musicians from the south are worth checking out. We even accept another Iberian invasion in this country, and actually they are allowed to stay for 80 years if they continue making awesome music ?

Check out the Castlefest website for the details on their shows.

Castlefest brings a mix of many styles of folk music.

You have bands like The SIDH with a very modern style of folk to Sunfire with their country folky feel, to Russkaja with their polka folk madness.

One other style you will be able to enjoy is the Pagan Folk. There are quite a few bands at Castlefest playing different styles of Pagan folk, Prima Nocta with their bagpipes and drums, Waldkauz with their dance-able tunes, Cesair (do I need to say more), Vael who will give you music in honour of the Celtiberian wolf god, and so many more.

Besides listening to this music you can also up your knowledge on the pagan folk scene at the Academy!

On Friday from 16.30h you can join CeltCast’s Alex Sealgaire in the academy tent with Waldkauz , RASTABAN and Vael , to get to know more about this beautiful style of folk!
