About Hornsby Ku-ring-gai Folk Club

Our club meetings are always varied and interesting with an open and friendly atmosphere and an audience always eager to join in the choruses. The acoustics are excellent in the hall so we prefer our music un-plugged, however artists wishing to use a PA as a balance are welcome to.

Seating is candle lit coffee shop style with tables and chairs being ideal for groups feel free to bring a bottle to enjoy with the entertainment, alcohol is permitted but can not be supplied Tables can be booked.

Bush poetry and storytelling is also a feature of our club

The club also presents a radio program North Side Folk on 2HHH 100.10 FM every Sunday morning

9am-10.30am.

What others have said about Hornsby:

Just wanted to thank you both and congratulate you on a great night last night! My wife came along for the first time and thoroughly enjoyed it too. You are doing a great job with the club - we appreciate it.
Thanks for a lovely evening on Friday, and thanks for the photo. It was fun doing that last tune, completely unrehearsed! The banner & lights & candles etc (+ audience of course) have made for a really welcoming atmosphere. Good on you!
