- **Event Name**: The Rising Sun Presents: An Evening with Rovers Legend Mike Newell
- **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 09 Jan, 2026 at 07:30 pm
- **Event Description**: Calling all Rovers fans, and fans of the beautiful game! Join us on Friday 9th January for 'An Evening with Rovers Legend Mike Newell'

Mike will be joining us to take part in a Q&amp;A hosted by Blackburn Rovers Master of Ceremonies Mark Butler, share some rare and hilarious anecdotes, sign autographs and take photos, and mingle with and share a drink with fans in the intimate setting of the town's No.1 Rovers pub!

There will be games, raffles and memorabilia auctions taking place as we look to raise some money for one of Mike's chosen charities, Ronald McDonald House.

As we are a public house we have followed our long-standing philosophy of not making this a ticketed event, and entry will be FREE, but we hope that in lieu of the price of a ticket for what will be a fantastic and unique evening you won't mind making a small donation on the night to Mike's worthy cause, which provides invaluable support to families with children in hospital.

Whilst entry is FREE this is an in-demand event and we aren't a massive venue. If you are planning to attend it would really help us if you could respond to this event to give us an idea on numbers.

See you on the 9th!
