Mansfield Brown Cow Folk Club

The Brown Cow Folk Club

For many years there has been a folk club in Mansfield at the Brown Cow pub. Every Tuesday at 8:30 p.m.

Generally this is either an open singers' night or a guest night, alternating each week, but it does vary. A "Feature" night gives the artist a fuller performance opportunity than is possible on a busy singers night.

There is a break halfway through the evening for food (included in admission fee) and a raffle.
