Open Mic. Open Mic.

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.

First and third Sunday afternoons each month, from 1.30pm.

All of these are free admission and everybody is welcome.

It is every Wednesday evening, starting at 9.10pm.
