There is a lot going on in Ibstock this weekend.

On Friday night, The Palace Community Centre has a film night featuring One Love.

This is a 2024 American biographical drama film based on the life of reggae legend Bob Marley, and played by Kingsley Ben-Adi. It charts his rise to fame in the mid-1970s up until his death in 1981.

More details are HERE.

On Saturday, the Central Bar and Venue hosts the West Coast Eagles.

The music of the Eagles is timeless and has influenced many artists over the past 45 years.

It does not easily fit into any category yet within it you can hear a subtle blend of pop, rock, country and a style all of their own.

To contemplate a tribute show to a band of this calibre and with such a legacy of songs, is a daunting task indeed.

Yet this is exactly what "West Coast Eagles" have done.

More details are HERE.

Back at the Palace in Ibstock, Friday night sees the Social Dance at The Palace.

This is an evening of ballroom, Latin and sequence dancing.

Eddie 'The Collector' will be providing the music.

More details are HERE.

On Sunday, Bushwell Farm near Coleorton, has The Rye Sisters In Concert.

Organisers promise a wonderful evening of bluegrass, Americana and folk.

The marquee will be up for this concert in one of the meadows and a lovely summer evening has been ordered.

More details are HERE.

Also at Bushmill Farm, Friday sees 'Where There's Brass'.

Author and musician Tom Kitching launches his new book and album, 'Where There's Brass', with a special storytelling and music concert tour.

Documenting six months living in the London waterways community, making the long journey across England from Manchester on a traditional narrowboat built in 1937, 'Where There's Brass' tells the story of the contemporary London waterways; a floating slum at worst, a bohemian, alternative, vibrant community at best.

It is a love letter to the waterways, and a rallying cry for what they can be in the future. Stories old and new interwoven with a specially composed suite of music, underpinned by Tom's long term accompanist, the brilliant Nordic mandola player Marit Fält.
