The Central Bar and Venue has two shows this weekend.

On Friday, the X-Factor winner from 2013, Sam Bailey, is playing live.

She will be supported by Chris Robin.

Despite her obvious nervousness during her first X Factor audition, Sam blew the judges away with her rendition of Beyoncé's 'Listen', receiving a standing ovation and leading Gary Barlow to describe her voice as "incredible".

Under the mentorship of Sharon Osborne she became a clear favourite on the show, dazzling audiences and judges alike with her stunning voice and natural stage presence.

She received more than a million votes over the course of the final weekend and was crowned winner of the show. Following her triumph, her debut single, 'Skyscraper', reached Christmas number one and her debut album, The Power of Love stormed to the top of the UK album charts in 2014.

On Saturday, the Ibstock venue has a Take That Tribute - Take@That.

Take@That are one of UK's leading tributes to the greatest British man-band of our generation.

Each member has tirelessly worked on recreating mannerisms and harmonies, along with choreographed dance routines giving you a physical likeness to the real Take That.
