Please do not arrive before 13:00, but be ready to play at least 10 minutes prior to the start of your allotted time so we can keep to schedule.
Please bring with you your music, your instrument(s), a music stand and if your group is scheduled to play in the Upper Hall, you may benefit from a music stand light, as some of the space is not very brightly lit.
There will be refreshments available so please bring cash/card/phone etc! (You will be reminded of this nearer the time!)
Car Parking: Very limited car parking is available at the school, so please don’t rely on obtaining a space. There are 2 nearby public car parks, both of which are Pay and Display (payable with contactless or via the Ringo app, neither accept cash):
Enjoy the remainder of this term, and here’s looking forward to a fantastic showcase of everyone's hard work this year.
If you're a member or tutor of MMC and have a local concert/gig/jam session... you'd like to advertise then please get in touch!
