For the first start-up period of EFN’s official life, membership paid at any time from the official registration date of the association (February 2019) to 31 December 2019 were agreed to last until 31 December 2020. Members who joined during 2020 had their membership extended to 31 December 2021. From 2021 onwards, all memberships will be renewable annually.
For this first start-up period, members who want to help the EFN to accumulate working capital to use in future work are invited to join and if possible to contribute a larger, one-off amount as an initial membership fee (of whatever they can afford) and be quoted in all communications as EFN 'Founding Members'.
As an indication, the group who set up the association and those members who have already made a one-off contribution to EFN's work and funds as Founding Members have already contributed enough for a basic working fund - and the Board has been working to raise other money from cultural funders, including contributions already received from British Council Wales, British Council Scotland and Creative Scotland.

Membership is open to organisations and individuals actively working in the folk/traditional scene in Europe.
Members commit to supporting the vision and aims of the network. By joining they contribute to the collective impact and voice of the network and can contribute to the work of the network.
The main benefits of membership are opportunities to meet, share and collaborate with others, increasing members’ own contacts and the mobility of artists and organisers in Europe.
The organisation is democratic with each member having a vote. The members determine the work and direction of the network
Members join by downloading and submitting a membership application form and paying an annual membership fee to the network. The regular fee structure reflects commitment by organisations and individuals.
The fees in 2022 are: €25 for individuals and €100 for organisations.
When democratic elections are held to appoint Board members each membership will have one vote.
