The main focus of the FWMF is artistic. We are a member-driven network that loves to exchange music, collaborate on inspiring projects and join forces with exciting new initiatives. Our main focus is artistic. We share artists, work together as equals worldwide and are not afraid of artistic risks. Interaction and collaboration between our members are our core activities, but the FWMF also seeks to facilitate links to other festivals and networks.

The network has over 50 members, representing a wide variety of music festivals.

From Oslo/Norway to Ulsan/ South Korea, from Douala/Cameroon to Ljubljana/Slovenia: the FWMF-festivals reach more than 3 million people year after year, and are inviting hundreds of artists to its celebrations all year round.
Membership is for all festival organizers with a worldwide approach, presenting music in the area of world, ethnic, traditional, folk and roots music.
