The
Maghull folk club also known as Maghull folk & acoustic was started at the Hare & Hounds pub Maghull by Dave Day & Dave Brennen, its been running since 1982 on the Tuesday evenings; before that it was it was St Georges folk club which started in 1973 at the St Georges Social Centre, Maghull. The clubs present home is at The MCA Pub 604 Green Lane, Maghull, L31 2H. Most Tuesday's the club commences at 8.00pm unless stated* (The venue has disabled access) Cash only at the Bar. We are a non profit club, monies taken are used towards the guests & functions etc. The club committee run the club for non payment. We do it for the love of folk music and keeping this genre alive! Singers, musicians & poets most welcome, and if you don't sing or play an instrument you're welcome to come along and listen. We are a friendly group. The new format from October 2026 we will only be using the P.A. occasionally, most club nights will be a sessions type format, admission will be free for non guest guest evenings Sessions are were folks perform from where they're seated. Over the years the club has had a wide verity of folk & contemporary music performers & guests. We're more like an extended family like many others clubs too. Note! When we do use the P.A. there are colored flashing lights pointing as the stage, these can be switched off if people require so. Also the venue has a licensed bar, (Cash only) plus car parks; at present a small one at the front of the venue, and a larger one to the side / rear of the premises. ![]() From October 2026 the club will continue on with a small committee. Paul Robinson will still be doing most of the publicity Treasurer, Paul Weldon. The club is staying open but there won't any longer be a membership, the club will still have a small committee but there won't an overall chief. Most evenings will be admission but on occasions there will be the sale of raffle tickets. Unfortunately we won't be able commit to guest bookings for 2027 and beyond though we may still have the occasional guest but that will be a decision made by those who attend the club regularly. Club Rules: We ask folks to be kind and civil to one another, refrain from making political statements, only in song. Please set your phones to vibrate mode as can be a distraction to the performers and others around too if your phone rings and also please give order when people are performing.
