Devonport Folk Music Club

Devonport Folk Music Club meets every Monday at 8pm at the historic command post, The Bunker, on Mt. Victoria, Devonport. The Bunker has been home to the Folk Club for over 30 years. At Real Music concerts we cater for a wide range of musical interests. The best local and visiting overseas singers and musicians are hosted and a Real Music Concert is a good, inexpensive night out in the company of friends.

Please take note of door charges as they may vary for concerts. This programme is subject to change. It is always a good idea to ring first if there is something special you want to see - and it is best to book early as space is limited.
