Your turn on stage

Our open mic welcomes bands, trios, duos and solo performers. Each act has a 12-minute slot, with a changeover every 15 minutes. A condenser microphone and a couple of DI boxes are available.

Slots fill up quickly. Check the programme for the sign-up time and arrive promptly.

Kids’ workshop & concert

Young musicians can learn together and share their music in an informal concert in the main marquee, with DBS-checked tutors and a supportive audience. All under-18s must attend with a paying adult.

Workshop and concert times will be announced in the 2027 programme.
