“The much-loved Children's Village is one of the most popular aspects of Peterborough Folk Festival, with family-friendly activities like crafts, face-painting and children's performers all weekend long on the dedicated Children’s Stage,” sayid Rob Davis, Folk Festival chair. “We can't wait to see the Yellow and Blue Crew kids parade from the Children's Village to enjoy Splash'N Boots on the Main Stage.”

The Festival is a four-day celebration of music, culture and community. It kicks off at Market Hall Performing Arts Centre on August 17th and various downtown venues on August 18. Nicholls Oval Park weekend events have free admission.

“It’s a collective experience for us and the audience. Our goal is always connection – bringing kids closer to their families and also to each other,” explains Boots.

“Our hope is that our music will connect and also inspire kids to stand up tall in who they are and know that they are always loved,” said Splash. “Unique and inventive, they constantly strive to create opportunities for parents and children to share moments.”
