Even when our guest diary is full floor singers are especially welcome, as are new resident singers and musicians. It'll cost at least £5 each for admission to a guest night and £2 each for admission to a "Residents and Visitors" night. Membership is free and once you're on the list you'll get email updates etc., and you'll be at the beginning of the queue for special events tickets which may also be a special (probably more expensive) price.

South Shields Folk Club was born in the early sixties as the Beacon Folk Club and met in the Beacon on the Lawe Top every Friday. Needing a bigger room, the club moved after a few years and for many years was known as the Marsden Inn Folk Club. We changed the name again after leaving the Marsden Inn, and for a few years before settling into the South Shields and Westoe Club we met at the Old Ship in Harton. We will be meeting every Sunday, except on bank holiday weekends, at 7.30 pm in the function room. If you look first at the Googlemap you'll see that Dean Road begins at a roundabout. South Shields and Westoe Club is about twenty yards away from the roundabout, to the west. The postcode is NE33 4EA. Metro trains are every 15 minutes on Sunday nights and these are the times of the last ones from South Shields:- to St James 10.12 pm to Manors 11.12 pm to North Shields 11.12 pm to Regent Centre 11.27 pm to South Gosforth 11.56 pm http://www.nexus.org.uk/metro/timetables/south-shields Find your way in Transport Direct |
