Shireburn Arms Hotel is hosting a free live music festival bringing together a line-up of wedding performers from across the region.
The Clitheroe-based wedding entertainment specialists Musique and luxury event suppliers Exceed Events have joined forces with James’ Places to organise Shirefest.
The music showcase festival will be held at the Shireburn Arms Hotel in Whalley Road, Hurst Green, in Clitheroe from 12pm on Sunday, June 25.
The free event will give couples the opportunity to hear Musique’s musicians playing live if they’re still looking for a wedding musician for the big day.
Musique is an exclusive collection of musicians providing wedding entertainment and entertainment for corporate and private events.
Their team of coordinators will be on hand throughout the day to speak to any prospective brides and grooms and answer any questions about planning and preparing for your wedding.
Speaking about his excitement for their upcoming Shirefest showcase, Musique’s managing director, Jamie Turner, said: “One of the most common questions we get asked is ‘Where can we watch your artists live?’
“We cater primarily for the private event market so this showcase is a rare opportunity to enjoy the acts up close and personal, and for clients to ask us any questions they might have before booking their event entertainment.
“It promises to be a really exciting event.“
Shirefest will feature a mash-up of musical genres including Motown, pop, swing, jazz, folk, indie, classical crossover and Ibiza club bangers with Desire DJ Live, Sam Ambers, and The Party Fettlers heading up the billing.
Desire DJ Live combines North West wedding musicians, consisting of DJ, male and female vocalists, a saxophonist and percussionist to provide interactive full evening entertainment that keeps the atmosphere lively and guests in high spirits.
Sam Ambers has gained popularity through renditions of classic numbers across all genres.
Whilst playing homage to the likes of Jamie Cullum, Nat King Cole and Michael Bublé, Sam aims to “refresh songs in an authentic, captivating style with a musical soulfulness and warmth that’s bound to delight listeners of all ages.”
Based in Lancashire, The Party Fettlers start with a mix of soul and swing classic, and transition into performing a range of pop music from the 70s to today’s chart music.
More acts are also set to be announced in the coming weeks.
There will also be a barbecue, pizza van and a pop-up outdoor bar to create an authentic festival-style day for music lovers.
Shirefest takes place at the Shireburn Arms Hotel, Clitheroe from 12pm - 6pm on Sunday, June 25.
Attendance is free, but pre-registration is required. To register, visit the James' Places website.
