Spring Is In The Air @ Seven


Some great music this weeked at Seven. Tonight, Friday 22nd April, 7.30pm, Lost Larks are four superb songwriters in stunning four-part harmony; expect rich four-part harmonies, supported by delicate instrumental interplay, and some wonderful songs. A PWYF event in Seven's venue.

Tomorrow, Saturday 23rd April, 7.30pm, look forward to Seven regulars, the excellent, Tim & Simon. In their own words, 'two affable middle-aged music-lovers who currently have nothing better to do than devise inoffensive arrangements of their favourite classic songs for piano, guitar and two passable voices'. A PWYF event in Seven's venue.

Food-wise, today Friday 22nd April from 5pm, and from 12 noon Saturday 23rd and Sunday 24th April, don't be fooled by the Little Red Food Truck. The truck is standing in for the Nacho Nacho Van which will be serving up home-made chillies on top of corn tortilla chips. Yummy!

On Sunday 24th April, 1.30-4pm, it is JazzLeeds – Conservatoire Jazz Collection.  Take your chance to get ahead of the latest trends in jazz by coming to hear the up-and-coming stars of the jazz scene! These gigs are an opportunity for final year jazz students to practice their imminent final recitals. Doors 1.15pm. £10 full / £8 conc. Under 25s £5.

Also, on Sunday 24th April, 7pm, the very popular Sunday Quiz, is a great way to end the weekend with friends and family. £5 per team, with prizes.

Coming up next week, do't miss Silky & Friends, the JazzLeeds – Joel Frahm Trio, and charming, funny and sombre one man play, Merry Dance. Much to look forward to.....

We  look forward to seeing you at Seven very soon. Every £ spent at Seven helps support high quality arts in a local setting.

Earth Day at Wilderness Ireland

 

 

 

 


 

 

 

Although we feel that every day should be Earth Day, today we would like to take a moment to remember why sustainable travel is so important to us. Exploring and appreciating nature is at the very heart of who we are. We truly believe that spending time outdoors is good for mind, body and soul. That's why we are so passionate about protecting the wild places we visit on our trips.

This Earth Day, we would like to reaffirm the commitment we've made to our travellers, ourselves and to the natural world to achieve True Net Zero status by 2030. We recognise that this will be no small feat, however as an ethically-driven company, it is of paramount importance to us that we protect the beautiful Irish wilderness and countryside we call home.

Curious to learn more about our sustainability practices and goals? Read all about how we measure and work to reduce our carbon footprint below. Check out our latest blog on spring flowers and Irish bluebells – which gives yet another excuse to go hunting for beauty and wellness in nature.

Happy Earth Day from the Wilderness Team.
