Shropshire County Council have advised that the Concert Hall part of the building is unlikely to reopen before June 2024. 

Look forward to seeing you guys. 😊

Can't wait! 🙂

Sadly Rob Smith couldn't sort out his car/transport problem in time to make it, but otherwise a crazy night with bonkers friends to a backdrop of wonderful music 🎶🧡

Today/Tonight from 5pm...

ONLY £5 ON THE DOOR

Has council given green light for event after the last being cancelled? 

Unfortunately everything at the Civic has been cancelled for the foreseeable future, ie. until the end of this year. 

The trademark pipe-end ceiling tiles are all down and there are literally dozens of support struts all over parts of the building, plus internal scaffolding. 

Will advise when it looks like reopening. 

Regards, Pep. 

All DJs confirmed! 

8 DJs,  8 Hours ... Only £5 on the door 

Hi everyone, 

Had some bad news over the weekend, which I could only confirm today. 

Unfortunately, we have become possibly the first N.Soul victim of this RAAC Concrete debacle with Shropshire Council cancelling all events at Whitchurch Civic until a full Structural Survey can be undertaken, in 2 - 3 weeks time. 

So our All-Nighter, this weekend, 16th September is  NOW OFF.  

Apologies for the inconvenience, 
Ian (Pep). 

PS. Hopefully the 21st October All-Nighter at Whitchurch Civic won't be affected. Will keep everyone informed as things become clearer.

Thanks Geese. 

Looking forward to hearing Luci too.

I've very much enjoyed my trips down to Whitchurch (country lanes and all) - an event that gets better every time IMO, with an appreciative, knowledgeable and growing crowd...and in a fantastic venue too! what more can you ask for?..well take a look at the headline DJs I guess 

It's a real pleasure to be included in the lineup once more, I anticipate lot of fun on the night so looking forwards to the September 16th instalment immensely.

See you all there
