Big Bands

For some time there has been a growing demand for more big band concerts. The big band concerts we have arranged in the past have been a sell out.

So, due to this popular demand,  we have organised a series of big band concerts at the multi-million pound state of the art venue of The Grand in Clitheroe.

Concerts will be held on a Sunday lunchtime. There will be food and drink from the licenced bar available from 12.00 midday, and the music will start at 1.00pm.

Cabaret table style seating is available for diners to replicate the big band era, and provide an enjoyable social experience.

All in all, an event of good food, drink, music and fun.

So, here is the line up.

SUNDAY MARCH 14th 2010. 12.00 Midday.
