About Stanstead Abbotts & St Margarets Village Club

Stanstead Abbotts & St Margarets Village Club is a grassroots music venue in Stanstead Abbotts, Ware. Bring your own PA, mics and instruments.

This listing is part of the Ware venue directory.

Stanstead ‌‌‍Abbotts and St Margarets Village Club sits at 5-6 High Street in Stanstead Abbotts, a village on the River Lea between Ware and Hoddesdon. It is a classic members' village club - a bar, a function room and a programme of community events that includes regular live music. The open mic runs on the first Friday of each month from 7.30pm to 10pm, with entry at £3 on the door. It draws a mix of local singers and players, and the club's sociable, low-pressure room makes it a good first stage for newer performers. The club keeps its events updated on its Facebook and Instagram pages, and can be reached by phone or email for enquiries about performing.
