# Event Details - **Event Name**: Emily Portman & Friends at The Globe, Hay-on Wye - **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 27 Sep, 2026 at 07:00 pm (+01:00) - **Event Description**: TICKETS - https://www.globeathay.org/whats-on/event/2026-09-27/emily-portman-friends Emily Portman is an award-winning singer and songwriter with a passion for traditional songs, hailed as ‘one of the new British folk scene’s most beguiling presences’ (Uncut). She has toured widely for over 15 years as a band leader, with The Furrow Collective, the folk chart-topping Sea Song Sessions, and in a duo with Leveret’s Rob Harbron. Emily was awarded a BBC Folk Award for Best Original Song and has released three critically acclaimed albums of original songs that recast old ballads and fairytales into new shapes. In 2026, Emily returns to the road with an inspired new live show previewing songs from her solo album Dominion of Spells, released in May 2026, alongside selected material from across her acclaimed catalogue. Dominion of Spells marks a bold new chapter in Emily’s songwriting. Drawing on ballads and folktales, the album weaves lived experience with rich mythic imagery, charting a heroine’s midlife journey through dark woods in search of transformation and wonder. Shape-shifting selkies, fairy queens, foxes, and owl goddesses are woven through contemporary story-songs exploring parenthood, home, burnout, grief, and the transformative power of creativity. Emily’s new songs are brought vividly to life in performance with a new live line-up featuring sought-after guitarist Louis Campbell and acclaimed cellist Lucy Revis (Before Breakfast). Together they create a richly layered yet understated sound world, with Emily’s luminous vocals, banjo, and piano at the centre, woven through crystalline harmonies, lush strings, and interweaving electric and acoustic guitars. Audiences can expect an intimate, spellbinding performance as traditional influences meet contemporary stories in the room. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/hereford/emily-portman-and-friends-at-the-globe-hay-on-wye/200030332645046 - **Event Categories**: music - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 6 ## Ticket Details ## Event venue details - **city**: Hereford - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: Newport Street, Hay-on-Wye, HR3 5BG Hay, United Kingdom - **lat**: 52.07691 - **long**: -3.12498 - **full address**: Newport Street, Hay-on-Wye, HR3 5BG Hay, United Kingdom, Howthelightgetsin Festival, Hereford, HR3 5BG, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Emily Portman & Friends at The Globe, Hay-on Wye - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events10/banners/d0b55bdb40552ef2dffcb5da87f5d28750ff97c5270cbfd11c529d35068adfb9-rimg-w900-h392-dc281828-gmir?v=1788263376 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Emily Portman & Friends at The Globe, Hay-on Wye being held? - **A:** Emily Portman & Friends at The Globe, Hay-on Wye takes place on Sun, 27 Sep, 2026 at 07:00 pm to Sun, 27 Sep, 2026 at 07:00 pm at Newport Street, Hay-on-Wye, HR3 5BG Hay, United Kingdom, Howthelightgetsin Festival, Hereford, HR3 5BG, United Kingdom. - **Q**: Who is organizing Emily Portman & Friends at The Globe, Hay-on Wye? - **A:** Emily Portman & Friends at The Globe, Hay-on Wye is organized by The Globe at Hay. - **Q**: What has been the experience of attendees at The Globe at Hay's events? - **A:** Attendees have given The Globe at Hay a rating of 1/5 based on reviews from early attendees on AllEvents.
