Cam-French - Traditional French music and dancing in Cambridge, UK

"Cam-French" is two things: a monthly session of tradition French music and dance, and a mailing list for the announcement and discussion of traditional French music and dancing sessions held in and near Cambridge, UK. We have a "welcome to Cam-French" leaflet which might be of interest.

The sessions

Regular sessions are held 8pm-10pm(ish) usually on the last Wednesday in each month, in Grantchester Village Hall. Upcoming dates:

Future dates subject to confirmation.

We're also listed in Webfeet which is worth a look for other events.

Here's a map to help you find Grantchester Village Hall - there's on-street parking nearby, but please don't block the access lane to the side of the hall! If you need a lift, please ask on the email list (see below) - there's probably someone who can help out.

All are welcome: you don't need to bring a dance partner. No previous experience is necessary, you'll be taught the basics - and maybe some of the "extras", depending on who's teaching! On club nights there's a fee of £2 each session to cover the hall charges (musicians go free). Or you could bring a musical instrument and play along.

The mailing list

To contact the human running the list, send email to Dave Holland <dave@biff.org.uk>. To send Cam-French your flier/advert/gig request, please email cam-french-committee@cambridgefolk.org.uk rather than sending it to the main list (we'll distribute relevant/interesting stuff to the main list).
