The Puppet Folk Experience unites acoustic music and handcrafted puppetry on stage at Manchester Central Library on Thursday 20 August 2026. This live show presents a range of performers who weave folk songs together with puppet characters, crafting an atmosphere that is both intimate and playful. The puppets are employed not merely as props but as comic foils, introducing a gentle, absurdist edge to the musical storytelling. The library setting complements the event’s thoughtful, low-key charm, offering a uniquely cosy backdrop for this blend of art forms. Tickets are priced between £6.13 and £16.96, with doors opening at 7pm.
