WOMAD is 40!

When The Drummers of Burundi leapt into the first WOMAD festival in 1982, the audience were wowed. And year on year, WOMAD has continued to astonish and open the eyes of you, our enthusiastic audience. This year we invite you to celebrate our 40th anniversary with us and experience the brilliance of our world festival with the help of this app.

Introducing the WOMAD App features:

The scheduling is back! Plan your perfect festival experience with My Favourites, choosing from musicians to spoken word artists to explosions in the World of Physics, art and so much more.

New to our app this year is a live WOMAD shop where you can purchase some of the finest WOMAD merchandise and music on the app. And when it’s ready to collect, you’ll be sent a notification. Easy peasy.

Let us help you Explore WOMAD so that you don’t miss a thing! From everything available to entertain your children from weenies to teens, what to find in the World of Words and Physics, where your workshops are taking place and how to reach the ever innovative interactive art exhibitions and more.

To ensure that you savour every tasty morsel, find every bar for the perfect pub crawl, find all the best luxuries and shop to your hearts content at the festival we have our shopping section where you can see every stall holder at the festival.
