You know the deal by now!
One big, brilliant mash-up of two of the smartest, warmest, most sing-your-lungs-out pop catalogues of the 80s & 90s – The Beautiful South and The Housemartins.
Beautiful South moments you know by heart – Perfect 10, You Keep It All In, Rotterdam, Song for Whoever and all the rest. Plus Housemartins joy in its purest form including Happy Hour, Me and the Farmer and the unstoppable Caravan of Love.
Great music, phenomenal atmosphere plus those giant red balloons, indoor snow and giant projections helping turn the room into one almighty party.
This one hits different every year — but it always lands the same way: the Town Hall bouncing, arms round strangers, voices gone by the end.
Support this year comes from Pulp’d – the world’s Number One tribute band to Britpop royalty Pulp. Sheffield born-and-bred and massive Pulp fans one and all, this lot are a fixture on the UK festival and gig circuit.
Expect Common People, Disco 2000, Babies plus fan favourites like Mis-Shapes and Lipgloss delivered with wit, charm… and some classic Jarvis moves!
All in all, a full-scale, no-nonsense Caravan of Love. Who’s in?
Please note – accessible tickets need to be booked through Box Office on 01642 729 729.
