The Music:

LINE UP

RADIO VIDEO

Excellent female-fronted 4-piece with vast repertoire from 80s, 90s and noughties, rock, pop and indie to crowd-pleasers such as their Abba medley.

THE REAL MCKOYS

Rabble-rousing punk renditions of 90s hits, power ballads and other classics – Ricky Martin to Robbie Williams, Glen Campbell to Take That.

QUIVERING LIP DO THE 80S

Duo with synth and drums backing tracks, vocals, guitar playing covers of 80s hits.

GRACE CHLOE

Young singer/pianist with an awesome voice playing pop/rock covers!

The Food - Think beer soaking street food all day!

This is a fundraising event for Hertford Men's Shed - The Men's Shed space is made up of an indoor area with a kitchen and toilets as well as a private outdoor garden space which is host to the official wooden ‘Shed’. The outdoor space has plenty of room for woodwork, creating, repairing and lots of benches for a sit down and cup of tea. Ticket sales will be donated directly to the charity via the Mac's Hart Trust, which will top up funds £1 for every £10 raised.

Tickets are just £10! Age restrictions apply, you must be 18+ to attend and may be required to show proof of I.D. if you are lucky enough to look under 25. Well behaved four-legged friends are free to join the fun!

There will be a limited number of tickets for sale on the door (available at £10pp), so we would always advise buying your tickets online prior to the event. This is a cashless event and we will be able to accept debit/credit cards on the door.

Location: The Hertford Brewery, 26 Old Cross, Hertford, SG14 1RD. Our venue is wheelchair friendly with accessible facilities.

The closest paid parking is available in Hartham Common Car Park or St Andrew Street, but it's probably easier to leave the car at home! Nearest train stations are either Hertford North or East.
