Come and experience tomorrowโ€™s stars today โ€” hear their original, hand-crafted songs, support local music, and celebrate community, creativity, and the festive spirit.

๐Ÿ•• Doors: 6:30 PM
๐ŸŽค Show starts: 7:00 PM
๐ŸŽ‰ Finishes: 10:00 PM

All five artists will also be releasing their debut tracks on this special night โ€” Thursday, 4th December 2025.
