Live Music with The Beard Conspiracy

The Beard Conspiracy are a three-piece ensemble based in the south east of England. Comprised of accordion, guitar, tuba and vocals, they play a dazzling array of fast paced tango, classical and klezmer with an eclectic blend of contemporary classics as you’ve never heard them before. They have been astounding audiences with their musical virtuosity and impeccable manners for the past two years and are the only band performing music from Shostakovich to Britney Spears on the same set! A great evening guaranteed.

There are plenty of streets with parking locally just be considerate to our locals. Refreshments: We provide and outside bar as well as an inside bar with 8 staff generally serving at any time, we have really nailed this to limit the queues, We have food available from the Food Shack all day, with a wide range of food styles... Getting Comfortable: You are welcome to bring your own folding chairs if you like (Highly Recommended), we have bench seating & tables for around 100 but I am sure most of you will be dancing the day away..

Would recommend getting in there quick as these will sell out fast for sure, would make a lovely Christmas gift for a partner or friend....
