**NEWFEST ALERT**
Please Like & Share 🙏
We're Excited AF to announce we're taking part in an event showcasing Newland Avenue's vibrant independent hospitality scene ❤️
'NewFest' is a collective effort from 10 of the currently *excellent* lineup of independent venues here in our beloved and unique avenue - -
15+ hours of gigs, events, food and drinks offers is happening in the space of a short stumble - what's not to like?!
Plenty of family friendly stuff planned, and a range of different atmospheres in each venue - come and meet all the great people with open doors, hearts and minds in your neighbourhood 😊
*Early headsup*
Tap will be hosting a singaround in the afternoon, so if you're a noodler, bring summat to noodle with!
(we have secure storage space so you can be free across the venues without your cumbersome instruments)
Much more to be announced here, and LOADS of stuff going on within a stone's throw 🎉🎈
Here's a somewhat more informative and less overexcited summary from Meg:
"NewFest takes place on 22nd August. Ten independent businesses are working together to deliver a series of events across the day. This includes music, food, activities, and even a pop up film screening.
We are doing this for several reasons; firstly, we already have a strong working relationship, secondly independent businesses in this area are affected by the quieter summer period, and we’d like to offer the community an affordable and enjoyable day with a view to increase footfall in the area, and meet new people. This is the first time we’ve done anything like this, and we’d really like to keep it going and expand it in the future.
We’ll announce some more details next week, along with opening times, what’s on where and when, and how you can get involved. In the meantime, save the date and watch this space…"
