WrexhamAbout the night
The Nag's Head on Mount Street is the long-standing home of the Wrexham Folk & Acoustic Club, which has run there for over fifteen years. On 'Singers' Nights' it's effectively an open mic: anyone can come along and perform, whether singing, playing an instrument or reciting poetry or prose, with the resident band (Goff Jones on guitar and vocals, Geoff Jones on cello and double bass) kicking things off with a few songs before the floor singers take their spots. It meets the first and third Thursdays of each month from October through to June (no first Thursday in January): doors 7.15pm for an 8pm start, finishing around 10.45pm. The next season opens with a Singers' Night on Thursday 1 October 2026. Admission is free, with a raffle and a 'pass the hat' to fund the guest nights. The club room is upstairs, separate from the bar (entrance at the rear from the car park), so it's perfect for unplugged performances.
