🎸 We’ve had some great young musicians perform in our unique underground entertainment venue, so we figured why not offer a dedicated junior open mic session to under 18’s.

ℹ️ ABOUT

Whether you sing, play guitar, drums, or any other musical instrument, or are a band already, you are welcome! It’s a chance for you to perform on a stage in front of an audience with a full pa, drum kit, amps, lighting.

Hosted by none other than Mat Roberts, a legend of the Bedford music scene.  Mat will be on hand to offer support and advice, as well as doing a few jam sessions of his own.

▪️UNDER 18’S INFORMATION 

Under 18’s are welcome in the bar from 5.00pm until 9.00pm on Sundays.

The Olde Watermill Shopping Village is set in and around an historic Watermill.
There has been a Watermill on the site since 1086 as the Watermill is mentioned in the Domesday book and it is one of the oldest overshot Watermills in the country.
Over the last few years, it has been lovingly restored and is now home to over 20 unique and individual shops as well as the Mill House Restaurant, Tea Room & Cafe, an antique centre, Miller’s Shopping Arcade and a soft play area for the children.
