Latest Events, News and Opportunities
Wednesday, October 9th
|
This weekend sees the return of the Marsden Jazz Festival
(11-13 October), with 7 headliners over 3 days at the Marsden
Mechanics Hall, with dozens of other gigs taking place in the pubs,
clubs and other stunning spaces across Marsden.
Running alongside the
Festival for the first time will be The Marsden Fringe Festival,
an independent music and arts festival taking place at the Standedge
Tunnel & Visitor Centre, giving an opportunity for all local
businesses to host events. Join them for an exciting
weekend of music, food, and fun!
Take a look at the new
programme of skills masterclasses and business support sessions, all
tailored for those working in the creative industries in West
Yorkshire, which has just been launched. WYCreate is a brand
new series of FREE training opportunities for creative freelancers
and microbusinesses to help them grow and thrive.
If you're thinking of
planning a family outing, maybe go along to The Big Opera Adventure
in Huddersfield Town Hall on Sunday 20 October, 3.30pm, a new
interactive show from the Orchestra of Opera North. It’s a
really fun and engaging opportunity for families to dive into the
world of opera!
Blair Sinclair, Principal Trombone of the
Orchestra of Opera North will be joining David Pipe
to explore the amazing sound-world of trombone and organ at the next
lunch hour organ concert in Huddersfield Town Hall on Monday 21
October. If you get chance, do go along to this special concert,
you can buy tickets on the door.
Finally, with half-term and
Halloween creeping up on us, check out what's coming up on our website and remember
if you have any events or activities planned, please do add them to
the site!
