The Folk Hall is a thriving community hub in the village of New Earswick, York. Opened by Joseph Rowntree in 1907, the Folk Hall was given as a gift to the people of the village as “a place for meeting”. Under the care of JRHT the building has been modernised creating a fully accessible and wonderfully light, bright space for everyone to enjoy.
The Folk Hall contains a wide variety of services and functions, with a Post Office, New Earswick Library and a Cafe on the ground floor. We have multiple different spaces that can be booked out for meetings, classes and large scale events such as corporate away days, celebrations and weddings. The variety of function rooms we have allow us to host the event you want. Please get in touch!
