Bands in the Sands

April 21, 2016

After great success this year we are planning next years series of events, set on the beautiful golden sands of Perranporth beach in Cornwall. With a sea view as a stunning backdrop with sand at your feet & the sun on your back, these events will be truly unique. Where else could you enjoy an ice cold beverage a stones throw away from the majestic atlantic ocean. Born from the incredible live music that has been happening at The Watering Hole, the UK’s only venue on a beach and the organisers of Tunes in the Dunes festival. This is a first of it’s kind series of events in Perranporth, not to be missed. Check out our website for dates, tickets and more info www.bandsinthesands.co.uk

What’s happening in December

November 24, 2015

Well what an exciting November we have had, it will be finished off with 50% off everything on Black Friday with some acoustic vibes at the end of the night with Matt Wills & Tom Walker. Taking us onto Saturday night with a bit of Hip Hop, we are in for a real treat with the Mouse Outfit ft Dr Syntax plus many more to make it an action packed night. The big story of November was probably the wind covering up the benches, leaving us sanded in, which is being fixed now by the hard working team. Again we are pretty happy it’s being blown in rather than away. One of many problems that we have to face through the Winter. Now December is upon us & we cannot wait The first week is kicked off with Free Burger Thursday. With each drink bought a FREE Burger is received, pretty good hey. This absolute Christmas cracker is then followed by the legendary frontman of REEF, Gary Stringer on the 4th December playing us a few songs for an intimate festive session. The Saturday then brings us Beardyman, which is looking like a sellout show, for a man who is a combined musician & comedian,well worth checking out. Just when you think it’s all over, we have the brilliant Sam Duckworth who used to be Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly playing an intimate show with us. We then look ahead to the Second week with the great SHY FX breaking down some beats on the 12th December, followed by a jolly old Santa run on Sunday 13th. The week after we have the brilliant Bad Manners lead by Buster Bloodvessel on the 19th, supported by the Mighty Offbeats. Then It’s Christmas Woooooo. Christmas day is the only day when hours are limited due to a family day. we only open up until 2pm for hot & cold drinks. To finish the month off we have an ABBA 70s New Years eve party, which is going to be amazing, with a champagne reception and a stupendous gourmet buffet followed by some terrific bands to dance the night away to. We wish everyone the best for December & we hope that no storms will be passing through our doors again 😀
