Event Details

The Station Square will be jumping all weekend long to the music of all of our fantastic bands; bars will be rollicking with shanties; and added to all that there will be workshops to attend including the very popular "how to play the ‘bones’!".  Places are limited for the workshops so booking will be needed.

And if you’re still gasping for more, our main multi-artist concerts will be a rollicking good night out for all the family.
