So for 2024 the date of the concert will be Sat.20th July, tickets will be £21.50, audience capacity is going to be increased from 200 to 300, and we are also going to introduce ‘early bird’ tickets – available now at £19.50 – so don’t delay…!
OUR QUIRKIEST GIG…
Certainly our quirkiest gig yet! A pop-up theatre with a stage, an audience and an ice cream van in a field in the middle of nowhere against the backdrop of some wonderful old railway arches. But again, a great evening!
RAIN DIDN’T STOP PLAY!
The Met Office got it wrong! It wasn’t supposed to rain, but it did! In fact it poured down, but nothing dampened the spirits of the wonderful audience who came to our sell-out Picnic Concert at the National Trust’s Flatford Mill last night!
Wrapped up in cagoules with blankets and umbrellas the resilient audience tapped feet, wiggled, danced and sang along, but above all kept smiling!
