REGULAR EVENTS

🎤 FOLK MUSIC NIGHT

On the last Saturday of each month we have a Ceilidh / open mic night run by the organisers of Wakefield Folk & Music Festival.
Starting time 8.30 pm (-ish).
Please fetch along your voices & any musical instruments you would like to play and join in (or just listen & enjoy).

The organisers of this event also hold regular informal acoustic jam sessions. These are usually on alternate Monday evenings - dates shown in the diary section.

... and now - in addition to these...

Dave’s Song & Tune Sessions
This is the group that used to meet at the Polka Hop pub before it closed - now regular at the Red Shed -
First and third Sunday afternoons each month, from 1.30pm.

All of these are free admission and everybody is welcome.
