LANCASTER FOLK CLUB (7.30pm) Upstairs @ Collegian Social Club, 1, Gage Street, Lancaster LA1 1UH *ACOUSTIC MUSIC CLUB* 📨 lancasterfolkclub@gmail.com
Our current host venue is small but perfectly formed and the room is accessible to those with mobility issues
It is important to turn up early if you want a good spot!
Performances will tend to be in situ (you play where you're sat) especially if it is a busy night.
We have an early start and an early finish due to the particular nature of the venue.
Dependent as it is on the Station's Public Conveniences, Tite&Locke closes earlier than most pubs, so we have to wrap up by 10:15pm (because that's when the Station Master locks up the toilets).
There is FREE PARKING in all the surrounding streets after 6pm when the Zone Parking Permit rule is relaxed until 8am the following day.
