Rest in Peace, Archie

Sold out - All tickets have been sold for Hedgehog’s Skin’s New Year’s Eve Party at Allendale Village Hall …

We’re a bit ‘taken aback’ by the speed that our New Year’s Eve Ceilidh sold out at our local sale of tickets at St. Cuthbert’s Church Hall yesterday morning. All tickets for the ceilidh were sold just after an hour of going on sale. We apologise again to those that travelled to Allendale only to find that all the tickets had gone and for those that were hoping for an online sale of remaining tickets. Sorry. https://www.allenvalleysfolkfestival.co.uk/newyearseveveilidh
