a weekend of live music and entertainment for all the family in longton
Thank you for supporting our weekend of live music and entertainment.
We’ve got 130 performances across 17 venues in Longton on Friday 12 and Saturday 13 July.
The much-loved event, organised jointly by South Ribble Borough Council and the Creative Network, will feature performances from 7pm in each venue lasting 45 minutes with a 15-minute changeover in between sets. People will be able to come and go as they like in any of the venues.
Wristbands will be required for entry to the event, which cost £5, and gets you into every venue, on both nights. Under 12s go free and do not need a wristband – there are certain venues, due to their licensing conditions, that children won’t be allowed into. This information will be included at the top of each venue page.
We know South Ribble is a vibrant and exciting place, jam packed full of incredible night-time venues and creative artists ready to take the borough by storm!
Our South Ribble Live events showcase the very best of South Ribble and allows our night-time economy to keep on thriving.
It’s a great weekend out for our residents, but our venues, people and entertainment acts also draw in many visitors from further afield which gives us a great boost in our local economy that benefits everyone!
We want our South Ribble Live events to go from strength to strength and to continue to showcase the very best artistic talent across the borough!
Feeling inspired? Contact us to find out how you can get involved in future events at events@southribble.gov.uk
There are a wide variety of acts, ranging from rock and soul bands to guitarists, ska groups, indie, pop, dance groups and singers.
All the information for venue locations, performance details, including timings can be found in this programme.
There is a map in the middle of the programme for you to find all the venue locations. Any last-minute changes can be found on the website at discoversouthribble.co.uk/southribblelive

We are really looking forward to this year’s South Ribble Live, which we are confident will be a fantastic success!
The Creative Network* and South Ribble Council have worked together to deliver this festival since 2013, and we are proud of what we’ve achieved. Last year was a fantastic success with over 4,000 people attending the festival.
The Creative Network is a grass-roots, non-profit, community group that is committed to developing the local creative arts scene by:
1 Creating fantastic memories of live entertainment
2 Encouraging local venues to see live entertainment as part of their business model
3 Bringing hundreds and hundreds of creative people together because... we believe that when you bring creative people together... great things happen!
To continue growing this vision, we need your support. Subscribe to our free newsletter by emailing info@thecreativenetwork.org.uk You’ll then receive our email containing all kinds of creative arts-related events and information for our area.
Thank you for your support, Nigel Stewart.
