Clevedon Music Club
Some 60 years ago Clevedon Music Club began presenting concerts in the Community Centre. Thanks to a succession of dedicated voluntary organisers and the generous practical support of the CCA staff, the tradition continues, each year offering a balanced series of affordable, high-standard, wide-ranging events, performed by professionals or outstanding amateurs. We are always delighted to welcome newcomers to our audience. No musical knowledge is needed, just an interest in live performances.
