Jazz & other events at THE GARDEN BAR, Burnley

[Mitch]

Our fab favourite venue in Burnley, THE GARDEN BAR, are well away with their summer jazz events.

This one is coming up this Sunday, 10th July - news from our friends there as follows:

"The Freddie Garner Quintet will appear at the Garden Bar on Sunday afternoon at 3pm. This is an excellent band and I'm sure you will enjoy them. Entrance is £3. Please come along and support us.

The Garden Bar is at 133-135 St. James Street, Burnley Lancashire BB11 1PD.

Come down from M&S on the corner, and you'll see the Garden Bar on the same side, on the next corner down!

Highly recommended - The Garden Bar is the friendliest and most laid back venue in Burnley. A great place for just being yourself.
