On a normal guest night we have several floor-spots who perform between 8.00 and 9.00 pm
Arrive early and ask to the MC on the night if you want to perform - or email now and book ahead

Our Open Mike Nights usually end with a 45 minute spot by a pre-booked guest,
often a local semi-professional artiste, who is paid modest expenses by the Club.
If you would like to be considered for this spot,
please contact Tony Prior on 01702 715111 or hoy@priority.ms


These bookings are subject to change, often due to circumstances beyond our control. 
For up to date information call Tony Prior on 01702 715111 or email hoy@priority.ms
