🎤 Junior Open Mic - The Cellar Bar


Time: 17:00 - 19:00

🎸 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.
