Daily Bowl is hosting a folk music night with live music, food and drinks on Friday 18 October. The event is open to all to bring an instrument and join in, or simply sit and listen.

The regular folk night is organised by Hannah Lord, a folk and traditional music graduate of Newcastle University.

It usually takes place on the last Friday of every month but will be held on the third Friday on this occasion.

Daily Bowl, a plant-based café beside Exeter Central railway station, also holds a regular latina music event on the third Saturday of each month.
