 Lakeside sundown evenings a great success
Our Lakeside Sundown evenings have now drawn to a close. We would like to thank the hundreds of people who attended the evenings over the past six weeks, helping to make it a successful event.
This free event took place every Friday from July to September at The Coffee Deck at Dinton Pastures. People could unwind from the week by socialising whilst enjoying live music, good food and the stunning sunset views of Black Swan Lake.
Our final evening took place last Friday (12 September) and we celebrated with a performance from 14 year old local artist, Will Sharpe. Will performed songs by The Beatles, The Kooks, Oasis and The Killers alongside his own music and played the keyboard and guitar.
We also supported other local artists at our Sundown evenings including: Dan Curtis, Spacebar Productions, David Curnow, Dan Cottle and Harry J Music.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who attended, alongside our suppliers and local artists. We look forward to seeing you again next year.
