The 2023 festival was live and in person on Saturday October 14, 2023 from noon to 8 pm. We returned to our 2022 location: El Cerrito Community Center at 7007 Moeser Lane in El Cerrito.
This year the Festival offered two stages of music performances, workshop spaces, a children’s room, and plenty of room for spontaneous jams.

The El Cerrito Free Folk Festival is a day-long arts and music festival that is free of charge and open to the public. The generosity and sponsorship of the San Francisco Folk Music Club and the City of El Cerrito Arts and Culture Commission have made the annual El Cerrito Free Folk Festival possible over the years.
The festival is an event of the San Francisco Folk Music Club, a non-profit organization that was founded in 1948 and is still going strong. Membership is open to everyone and is encouraged for all.
