The Acoustic Calendar
  • Home
  • Links
The monthly calendar of folk clubs, singarounds, acoustic sessions & open mics in the South West of England (and a little bit more)   
("I have said it before and will say it again, this Acoustic Calendar is the best in the country and probably in the world."  Chas Jacobs)


The Acoustic Calendar is all about DIY music (NOT concerts, gigs, ceilidhs etc).  The purpose of the Calendar is to keep you informed of all the places where you can take your voice and/or instrument and join in or do your own thing.

It consists of two parts: a monthly Calendar of events and an alphabetical Venues List, giving a fuller description and contact details for each venue.  Each of these parts can be downloaded in pdf format.  The Calendar can also be downloaded in a Word version in order to allow you to customise it according to your local requirements.

SORRY, NO MORE MONTHLY CALENDARS UNTIL
