More about Dorfold

Cheshire, England

Dorfold sits quietly in Cheshire where the cows are probably more interested in your quiz answers than you are. There aren't many big venues listed yet, but that just means we're waiting for the local pubs and halls to fill up with their own brand of good times. We'll be tracking down whatever pop-up gigs or community nights appear on the calendar soon. Until then, keep an eye on this page so you don't miss out when the next event decides to turn up.
