Familiar venues but more unusual performers. The links mainly take you to the place where you can get best information. Try something new this month. As always we hope you have fun.
I’ve given a web link in most cases. Please check before you go. As with all exploring, some of our ‘What’s on’ suggestions will be brilliant, some will give you completely new experiences, and others may be a disappointment. Some events have a fee or ticket price. I’m putting this list together based on what I think looks interesting.
