Final shindig for Lancaster mayor’s charity event
The Platform, Morecambe will see the final event of this incredible project, celebrating a year of music, community spirit, and fundraising for Citizens Advice North Lancashire on Sunday, May 11.
Chosen by Mayor Abi Mills as her charity of the year, Citizens Advice North Lancashire has been at the heart of a music-filled journey that’s featured everything from sea shanties and punk to folk tunes about the witch trials.

Now, it's time to wrap up the year in style with a BIG party - and everyone’s invited.

The final show on May 11 will feature an incredible local line-up including Off The Rails, Pete Moser and friends, Owlys, Katoush and Chveni Khmebi (Georgian choir).
