Newport Folk Club is proud to be associated with a number of leading events in the South Wales folk music and cultural calendar. As these events return after lockdown you’ll find details of our partnerships here. Meanwhile here are some of the events we’ve supported in the past…and expect to do so in future.
ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING
Date: JANUARY 20 2022
The Folk Club AGM will be held at 7.30 on January 20th. Please come along and participate. Questions can be submitted to the Committee beforehand, which will be addressed during the meeting. Questions can also be asked from the floor on the night.
TREDEGAR HOUSE FOLK FESTIVAL
Date: May 6-8, 2022
The Club supports the huge Sunday afternoon concert at this festival held in the National Trust grounds at Tredegar House stately home in Newport. We also run an open mic at the festival. Next year’s festival dates are May 6-8, 2022, and the Club will be sponsoring a performance by the incredible Boo Hewerdine on May 8. There’ll be lots more guest-artist detail and more festival information as it becomes available at Tredegar House Festival
THE BIG FREE, CAERLEON
Date: JULY, 2022
Our players support ‘The Big Free’ day at the Caerleon Festival, a glorious day full of music and stalls and families generally having the time of their lives. The day is a culmination of concerts and arts events that take place throughout the year. Next year’s Big Free takes place in July 2022 (and it’s usually a beautiful sunny day).
