Artists’ Bookings
We are keen to encourage newly emerging and established talent alike. We need the support of our local performers; without them we would be lost.
If you are looking to come to Atherstone Folk Club and perform, please be aware of the following.
- All floor spots are pre-arranged; we do not want to disappoint anyone who just turns up.
- It is, therefore, unlikely that a last-minute request for a floor spot can be accommodated. (But … )
- Floor artists are not remunerated.
- Please contact us in advance to make arrangements.
