Welcome to the Southern Sydney Folk Club!

~ markwilkes

The Southern Sydney Folk Club is a place for people who enjoy playing and listening to original folk music. We host regular concerts to showcase local, national and (occasionally) international performers in an intimate and personal setting. Check our upcoming events page to find out what’s coming up next!

We also give our members and guests a safe space to share their music – often original compositions – and develop performance skills in regular group sessions. We aim to foster musical interest and talent within the community by holding regular instrumental sessions.

We hope to see you soon at one of our events or sessions!
