RIPLEY LIVE PROGRAMME

Here is our programme which we feel is an exciting mix of new faces to the venue combined with the return of some RipleyLive favourites. Bands love to play Ripley Town Hall because of the special atmosphere created by an enthusiastic and respectful audience standing directly in front of the stage. We understand however that some people like/need to sit and where numbers allow we provide seating towards the back of the hall.

First time visitors to our main hall venue need to be aware that views of the performers can be restricted for those seated towards the front and we ask that people accept this situation uncomplainingly. Also if a seat is important to you please arrive early as when all the chairs are taken no more can be provided. An indication is given below of the likely lay-out for each of the shows. Finally, our gigs are for those who like to listen not to talk and we kindly ask that anyone who wants to chat retire to our upstairs bar so as not to spoil the show for others.

We continue to offer firms and individuals the chance to sponsor a gig of their choice and have their name featured on gig tickets and on our website. The cost is £100 and includes a couple of free tickets to the gig.
