FRIDAY 4TH JULY, 7.30PM – 9PM, WHIFFLER THEATRE, CASTLE GARDENS

On Friday 4th July, talented young musicians will take to the beautiful outdoor stage of the Whiffler Theatre in the grounds of Norwich Castle to perform a free evening of acoustic music as part of the Norwich Lord Mayor’s Celebrations. 

Hosted by Creative Arts East (the East of England regional delivery partner) in association with somewhereto_, a UK legacy project delivered by Livity and funded by a £7m grant from the Big Lottery Fund to support its UK wide expansion to 2016. somewhereto_ is a free nationwide location finding service, which helps 16-25 year olds, access free spaces in their communities.

somewhereto_ Jam Unplugged will start at 7:30pm, featuring live, acoustic performances from local young performers including George Duller, Jodie Richardson, and Alison Mackinnon. The evening will be presented and compered by Norwich model and actress Amy Bevan.

A spokeswoman for Norwich City Council, who have donated the Whiffler Theatre for the event,said: “We’re proud to be working with somewhereto_ again this year as part of the Lord Mayor’s Celebration. The event is a fantastic opportunity for young people to show how passionate they are about live acoustic music”.  The event will also be assisted by other young people who will be volunteering for the evening. This is a great opportunity to support young people and live music, with somewhereto_ and the Lord Mayors Celebrations welcoming the public to come along, bring a picnic and enjoy an evening of free acoustic music.
