St Albans Folk at the Festival, 2012 We do not yet know St Albans Council's plans for St Albans Festival. We will have a Day of Dance on Saturday June 30 2012 and are discussing having another Old Town Hall Folk Day on the same day. We are in the process of looking at how much support there is likely to be from people who enjoyed the event next year. To take part in the discussion, click here. We assume that St Michael's Street Folk evening will be on its customary date, Wednesday July 4 2012, just outside the likely festival period, subject to sporting events.
