The Big Berkshire Beach Gig
Five of the most exciting local bands and musicians perform on our Courtyard stage and Hawaiian inspired beach.
The evening wouldn't be complete without breaks between the acts - so you can soak up the atmosphere on the beach!
£8 | This is a standing event with some allocated seating.
We are thrilled to share The Big Berkshire Beach Gig 2017 line up which features:
Rain Crew
The Reading based four-piece band are known for thrashing out punk-tinged indie-pop tunes. Band members include Beth Atkinson (vocals, rhythm guitar), Lewis Thomas (drums), Ryan Nicholls (bass guitar) and Mac Sullivan (lead guitar).
Hong Kong Drinking Team
This five-piece indie band is made up of Charlie Ackary, David Yung, Luke Yexley, Jack Badley and James Skinner. Born in Berkshire and styled in Asia, the Hong Kong Drinking Team serve up thick riffs and chilling vocals. They are to be enjoyed irresponsibly!
