A quite unique night in 3 parts, featuring:
LIVE ROBOT FIGHTING
- Purpose-built machines do battle in a specially-constructed arena with the aim of immobilising each other
- Full tournament - winner receives a gold medal
- Rumble - single fight between all competitors, winner receives a silver medal
- It's just like Robot Wars except the robots there weighed 110kg while the ones tonight weigh 150g
- Live battle music
- Get in touch ([email protected]) if you have your own antweight which you would like to enter
LIVE MUSIC
- Eli Gumble
Fiercely independent solo singer-songwriter. Writes songs in varied styles, all tied together by the carefully-crafted storytelling in each one.
Comparisons have been drawn to George Formby, Daniel Johnston, Yellowcard, Brett Domino, The Eversons, Dudes and Their Guys, Tiny Tim, Monty Python.
I can assure you that I don't have a silly voice, despite some of those names.

- Buoy Meets Krill
Buoy Meets Krill is your favourite soothe song played from the bath, waves of sound lapping at your jazzy little toes as you drift on a story somewhere between folklore legend and beachy blues.

- Broken Tides
The quartet, led by Yiannis's soulful vocals, weaves catchy melodies with dreamy atmospheres and Middle-Eastern-inspired elements. Comprising Alex on guitar, Cat on bass, and Josh on drums, Broken Tides promises a mesmerising journey into a realm where their unique sound captivates and lingers.
