The good folks at Stockton’s Globe are throwing a bash! The recently renovated venue is back to its former Art Deco glory after a serious facelift, and they’re inviting you to join them in their celebrations.
GLOBEfest is a free event (with tickets to be sourced online and from the town’s Visitor Information Centre) which will be buzzing with energy and character that reciprocates that of the fine building. The all day event takes place on Saturday 10th September and will be presented over three stages including multifunctional venue space The Link.
Top of the musical agenda will be performances from folk songstress Amelia Coburn, indie songwriter Joe Ramsey, Middlesbrough rapper Shakk, dynamic alt. pop artist Nadedja, indie alternative rockers We Tibetans, singer Marina Gears and soulful balladeer Lost State of Dan among others. More eclectic entertainment comes in the form of magician Andy Larmouth, spoken word performances from the Tees Women Poets, not to mention dance troupe Urban Kaos, drumming from Apollo Arts and storytelling courtesy of Chris Bostock, meaning there’s something for EVERYONE. In addition, there will be plenty of interactive fun to be had including singing, stage make up and puppet making workshops (for adults as well as kids), street performers, heritage cinema, treasure hunts, stalls, food and so much more.
