20/04/23 Fringe Event Update
At the 2023 show we held two fringe events free to Day Ticket holders. This year we’re going one better…
Friday Night: We’ll be holding another Noir at the Bar Bay event – 10 authors, reading from their work at The Crab & Waltzer. The perfect place to start your weekend with good food, good drink and good company, and great readings.. There’ll be spot prize giveaways and our partner bookshop the bound will be present if you want to get signed copies.
Saturday Night: After our all-day event don’t even think about calling it a day! We’ve got some very special friends putting on an evening of fun. Drink may be involved…for the panel and the audience…more details coming very soon!
Sunday Morning: Following 2023’s podcast special, we’ve got another event happening at Whitley Bay Library, supported by the fantastic team there and featuring two of our favourite authors and audience favourites from previous Bay Tales Live and/ or Virtual Noir at the Bar… (we’re not giving any more clues than that at the moment…but we’ll reveal much more very soon!)
All three fringe events will be free, but places will be limited due to venue size and offered to ticket holders on a first come first served basis. If you’ve bought a ticket direct from us we’ll have your details and will let you know as soon as we formally announce. If you’ve bought direct from the venue, let us know via the contact page to be first to hear. And if you haven’t bought a ticket yet? Contact us to order your tickets, still available for 2023 prices (Just £35.00 + £1.50 venue handling fees) for a very limited time. Tickets will go up in price when full programme is announced.
