| Friendly Bridge Club in Ilkley |
 Welcome to OLICANA Bridge Club in the delightful West Yorkshire town of Ilkley. We are located at 12 Wells Promenade in the town centre. We are just a few minutes walk from Ilkley Train Station - regular services from Leeds and Bradford and a few minutes walk from the bus station (which is adjacent to the Train Station).
We have duplicate sessions scored using Bridgemates on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday evenings. Please try to be seated no later than 7.05pm so that we can make a prompt start. We offer a warm welcome to any visiting pairs. There are teams of four evenings, occasional weekend events and beginners/improvers sessions too - please see the weekly calendar for precise details of all of our events. We have a host system on Wednesday evenings which allows players without a regular partner to come along and to be guaranteed a game.
2013 is the 50th Anniversary of the inauguration of Olicana Bridge Club!
