Rebecca Stewart (Cambridge Folk Festival)

I am Festival Manager for Cambridge Folk Festival. I am only the third person to have this position and the first woman. It’s a multi layered job. I work mostly on the production side managing advancing artists, working with media partners, staffing, caterers and traders, design and marketing, I book all the fringe events and workshops and pull all the admin together in order for the Festival to work. I also work with the booker to create the line-up. As well as putting an induvial festival together I am constantly looking forward to what could happen next, projects we could be involved with, are we doing the best we can in terms of our environmental impact and other areas we need to be developing.
