Richard Smith

NOTE CHANGE OF VENUE TO SOUTHWELL WI HALL DUE TO WEATHER.

Richard started playing the guitar at the age of 5 and over the years his style has combined classical music, Jazz, the gypsy style of Django Reinhardt, bluegrass, ragtime and the blues to Sousa marches. Richard is renowned worldwide for his mastery of the instrument and his knock-out entertaining show.

Doors 7pm.

Tickets £14 in advance, plus booking fee, and £16 on the door if any remain. Any questions please email marketing@southwellfolkfestival.org.uk

Southwell WI Hall, Sheppards Row, off Queen Street, NG25 0AB
This is in the centre of Southwell, down a walkway to the side of Pinders’ Opticians. The venue itself does not have a car park. There are pay-and display car-parks opposite The Minster and behind the One-Stop Shop on King St, which are both free after 6pm. There is also a pay-and-display car park across the road behind the Saracen’s Head Hotel, but we believe you will have to pay here, even after 6pm

PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN REFRESHMENTS (alcohol is allowed). The late change of venue means we have no licence ourselves.

This event is being promoted in partnership with The Gate to Southwell Festival (GTSF) partly as a taster for some of the incredible international roots and acoustic music you'd expect to see at the 17th festival which will take place from 4th to 7th July 2024 at the stunning Kirklington Lakes near Southwell. GTSF is a not for profit company run by volunteers and described as "quite possibly the best small folk and roots festival in the UK" by those who attend.
