Community folk music calendar

Updated 2/25/2026

Events are in-person if a location is provided, online (“virtual”) otherwise.  Event times are PST through March 7. Starting March 8 event times are PDT. (Note: Britain & Ireland change time on March 29th so for much of March there is only a 7-hour time difference. This is not reflected in the regularly scheduled events in this calendar. Those listings times are marked ** to remind you to check the actual time.) Calendar items or corrections can be sent to SFFMC Calendar Editor Shelby Solomon at folknikcal@yahoo.com.
