This evening there’s the usual choice of live music with Gringo appearing at The Northern Renegades and The Savannah Jazz Band performing at Burton Jazz Club. Also this evening (or late afternoon really) there is a parade of Chinese Lanterns outside Burton Library.

Tonight, tomorrow and on Saturday you have the chance to see Burton Operatic’s performance of the comedy musical ‘Me and My Girl’ and also for theatre fans, the comedy ‘I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change’ is being performed at The Brewhouse both tomorrow and Saturday.

Tomorrow is of course Halloween and so there are a couple of Halloween related events: Firstly there is Halloween Racing at Uttoxeter which doesn’t sound all that spooky but you are promised Halloween fun between the races. There is also a Halloween Ghost Walk at Rosliston Forestry Centre.

For those looking for non-Halloween events tomorrow there is Eddie and the Hotrods appearing at Conkers and master fiddler Tom McConville performing at the Brew Town Folk Club.

On Saturday there is a choice of no less than four fireworks displays with the big bang theory being tested at tutbury Castle, Uttoxeter, Rosliston Forestry Centre and at Klondyke Mill in Draycott. ** Don’t forget that there are other fireworks display during next week and on Saturday 8th too!

Not so explosive events on Saturday include Burton Albion playing at home to Ebbsfleet United and a Soul Night at Burton Town Hall.

cineworld cinema highlights this week include ‘Quantum of Solace’, ‘High School Musical 3′, ‘Saw V’ and ‘Ghost Town’.

As usual, details of all the above can be found on the InBurton what’s on page.

Whats On in Burton on Trent This Weekend….

Posted in September 11th, 2008

Burton Albion crestImage via Wikipedia * what’s on in Burton on Trent This Weekend *

Tonight (Thursday), Brian Carrick’s Algiers Stompers are appearing at Burton Jazz Club and Phil Lloyd is performing at The Northern Renegades Country Music Club.

Also tonight, as well as tomorrow and Saturday, the musical Hello Dolly is being performed at The Brewhouse Arts Centre. There are also events at Alrewas Arts Festival which runs until Saturday. This includes over 40 ‘Come and Have a Go’ (if you think you’re hard enough) workshops and culminates in a Grand Finale Concert in the open air on Saturday. Just take a picnic (and a dinghy in case of rain!)

Tomorrow, if you feel energetic, there’s a 5 mile walk in Ticknall with East Staffs Ramblers.

On Saturday there’s the Armed Forces Memorial Parade at Alrewas as well as the chance to see Burton Albion at home against Weymouth.

On Sunday there’s a charity fun run and walk at Rosliston Forestry Centre and a Living History event at tutbury Castle. Also in tutbury, at the church, there’s a strangely titled ‘Ride, Stride and wedding Weekend’ - From the title it sounds like a disguised warning - but it’s described as a ‘fun packed Heritage Weekend at St Mary’s Church with the Ride & Stride event along with Flowers & Exhibitions for the wedding Weekend - something for everyone’.

cineworld cinema highlights this week include ‘Pineapple Express’, ‘The Women’, ‘Eden Lake’, ‘RocknRolla’ and ‘Mamma Mia’.

As usual, details of all the above can be found on the InBurton what’s on page.

That’s yer lot for today, have a great weekend!

Best regards,
Chris
