Warwick District Council extends deadline for nominations as part of online gig event at bandstand in Leamington
and live on Freeview channel 276
The brainchild of the Council’s Green Spaces team, BandStand Together is an online gig which will be recorded at a future date on the newly restored bandstand in the Pump Room Gardens.
To provide the playlist, the council is making a call to people in the district to dedicate a song to someone who has made a difference in the community, or has had a particularly difficult time due to the pandemic.

"We know that the latest lockdown will have brought even tougher times affecting even more people in our community, we therefore hope that lots of you will now take the time to visit our website to make a nomination.”
A selection of the dedicated songs will be performed by musicians who the council is inviting to play for a nominal fee.
