FAQ
How many songs can I play?
Normally artists can play 1-3 songs. Comedians can have up to 5 mins. We may reduce songs to two per act if we have extremely high demand for slots so that we dissapoint less people.
How does the raffle work?
We read out each number just after 6pm and those who’s numbers are called then choose a time from our timesheet.
Do you take bookings in advance?
No sorry, we do not take any advance bookings.
What if work commitments or childcare mean I can not get there for 6pm to sign up?
Unfortunately we can not make any exceptions but we may be able to squeeze you in on the night if a spot becomes available. It’s always worth checking for a slot later on if you are in the area.
