Thread Name: Easter Monday Day of Folk Wigan UK
Subject: Easter Monday Day of Folk Wigan UK
This Easter Monday, 1st April 2002, Wigan will hold its 4th Annual Day of Folk at the Seven Stars Hotel, Wallgate (by Wigan Pier). There are no guests booked, just an all-day and all-evening song session from 2pm till we get thrown out (late). Food is available at the pub, and children are welcome (at least in the afternoon) so you can make it a family day. There is a small car park at the back of the pub.

This is the venue for Wigan Folk Club's Thursday song sessions (we also meet on Tuesdays at the Fox & Goose, Wigan Lane); and as per our normal clubnights, there is an open music policy - the only thing we insist on is it must be acoustic (although a blind eye has been turned in the past to the odd unobtrusive amplified bass). Other than that, all are welcome.
