Bedworth Folk Club (Midlands UK) 2nd & 4th Wednesdays each month http://www.bedworthfolkclub.co.uk Singing Sessions & Clubs
The Club meets every 2nd wednesday of the month at Bedworth Conservative Club, and also holds a second night most months on the 4th wednesday at Bedworth Rugby Club. The club is quite unique in that there is no admission charge despite the fact that there are top rate guests at almost every meeting (we just pass the jug around so you can give as much or as little as you wish) - our aim is always for everyone, guests, audience and floor singers alike to have a really good time.

Floor singers are always welcome but we get very busy so we reccommend a call or email to reserve a spot, on the night it is very much first come first served - if there is space available. See web site for contact details
