Cancelled - Emily Smith Concert

Emily Smith's Songs For Christmas

It is with deep regret that, due to poor ticket sales, we're having to announce the cancellation of the Emily Smith Songs For Christmas concert due to be held this coming Saturday 15th December at Our Lady & St Ninian's Church. All bookings so far will, of course, receive a full refund.

As anyone involved in organising an event/s will know, you rely on an audience to make an event really shine and when you're bringing really good quality acts to the region you have to ensure that you can acheive the level audience you need to make the event, at the very least, break even.

Our sincere apologies to anyone who has already purchased tickets.  You will, of course, receive a full refund and we hope that we can make it up to you by offering you an additional something special at the 6th annual Newton Stewart & Minnigaff Traditional Music & Dance Festival in July 2019.  Stay tuned for that.

Keep music live.  :|
