Apple Tree Festival

Charlotte Richardson wrote in The Yorkshire Post – ‘Forget Glastonbury and music worshipping festivals, this weekend an East Yorkshire village will celebrate the English apple in all its forms at a special one-day festival.  Long Riston’s Applefest is now in its third year and while it’s still small scale the popularity of this family-friendly celebration is growing year on year. People from across the East Riding and further afield will descend on Manor Farm later today for the annual celebration of all things apple’.To read the whole article click here  http://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/news/rural/farming/a-fruity-celebration-at-applefest-1-6877452 .

Village Hall Ceilidhs In East Yorkshire

Village Halls are fantastic venues for Ceilidhs a great family or community celebration – We have played in villages across the east riding for weddings, retirement parties, birthday parties, church groups and schools.

A Ceilidh is a great way to celebrate a special occasion – it brings people together and are a great way to make a wedding, birthday, anniversary or retirement party a memorable and fun event – we can compere the event and even play special tunes like ‘Happy Birthday’, ‘Here Comes the Bride’ and ‘For He’s a Jolly Good Fellow’.

Why choose a Ceilidh? – Well firstly it’s really good clean energetic fun with a broad appeal to all age groups. The nature of a Ceilidh makes friends of strangers and is a great ice breaker! Once you’ve booked the band and explained the arrangements for the day mentioning any special announcements or musical moments that you want us to create you can relax knowing that the we can provide  provide the perfect entertainment for your special occasion.
