Regent Street to take centre stage

by isleofman.com 23rd October 2012

Regent Street, Douglas will be taking centre stage on Saturday December 8th when it’s set to echo to the sounds of Christmas.

A community stage is being set up there and local community groups, schools, youth organisations and brass bands are being invited to perform traditional Christmas music and carols.

Douglas town centre manager Gill Anderson said: ‘The stage was a big hit at this summer’s Festival of Youth and it’s making a welcome return on Saturday December 8th, although on this occasion we’re looking for the traditional sounds of Christmas in music and song to create a suitably festive atmosphere for shoppers. This is a one-day only event from around 10am to 5pm so people need to get in touch as soon as possible to book their free slot. The stage will be right in the heart of town so is quite literally the ideal platform from which to perform.’

To apply for a slot contact Gill Anderson, ganderson@douglas.org.im, 696304, or call into the Partnership’s office in Victoria Street, Douglas.
