Live music jam at Town Gardens Bandstand.

Are you a musician looking for a place to connect with others, share your passion, and make some music together? Whether you're a seasoned pro or just starting out, all skill levels and genres are welcome at our next jam session.

Bring your own instruments and get ready to collaborate in a fun and relaxed atmosphere. This is a fantastic opportunity to meet fellow musicians in the area, try out new ideas, and simply enjoy the joy of playing music with others.

The venue doesn't have electricity so feel free to bring any acoustic instruments, unless you have a battery-powered amplifier. Feel free to bring water or any other refreshments.

As this is our first event and a space for everyone to feel comfortable expressing themselves musically, we kindly ask that all attendees be respectful of each other. Let's create a supportive and encouraging environment where everyone feels free to play and experiment.

This is a placeholder and the event depends on the weather conditions on that day.

To register, go to the Meetup website. See you there!
