Venue change at Pershore

If you are heading to the popular Pershore Midsummer Brass Festival then there is a change of venue to take into account to enjoy the music.

Pershore
  The event takes place at various venues across the town

The Pershore Midsummer Brass Festival, which has been run since 1985, has announced a change of performance venue at this year's event on Saturday 6th July.

Due to unforeseen circumstances the organisers are not able to use the regular venue of Chapman Court. Thankfully a new venue at St Andrews Gardens has been added to Pershore Abbey, The Angel Inn & Gardens and the Leisure Centre

New venue

A spokesperson told 4BR: "The new venue is to be found on a high footfall route between the Abbey and the High Street. The audience will be made aware through A5 inserts in the programme and highly visible directional arrows will be placed around the town."

Tickets for PMB will be available from local businesses: Blue in Broad Street, Pershore Eyecare in Bridge Street, Visitor Information Centre at the Town Hall.
