St George’s Day Festival – The Mods Are Coming

MOD Revival band Secret Affair will headline the all new St. George's Day Festival to be held at Preston Guild Hall on Thursday 23rd April

The venue is keen to commemorate this date and celebrate in the same way that we do for St. Patricks Day etc. The line-up will also include MOD favourites The Lambrettas, to complete this very English genre of music.

Susan Burns of Guild Promotions said “We were very keen to include the Northern Soul element to our program of events here at the Guild Hall, and what better day to introduce this than on St. George's Day! We are wanting to make more of a weekend of entertainment next year, but thought we couldn’t let this year go without marking the occasion. We have close ties with a few avid fans of this genre of music and they have given us the ‘thumbs-up” for the chosen line up, so we are happy that this St.George's Day Festival will be authentic to the style of music we have decided to go with. We want to put time and effort into growing this event and hopefully in a couple of years it will be a firm favourite date in the Northern Soul / MOD calendar.”

The doors will open at 7pm and the show starts at 7:30pm, tickets are £22.50 plus booking fees and go on sale on Friday 20th March at 09:00
