The Topic Folk Club

The oldest continuously running Folk Club in the world the Topic has always been based in, or very close to, the City Centre of Bradford. We book a wide range of guest performers most weeks but the first Thursday of every month is usually a Singers' and Musicians' night, as is the whole of August. More information can be found on our website which includes a list of forthcoming guests
