 MUSIC ON THE MARKETPLACE DURING AUGUST: We noticed that the street entertainment that featured in the marketplace during Stowmarket Festival created a great atmosphere in the Town Centre - so we've decided to do it again. We've booked some great musical acts to perform on the marketplace every Wednesday in August. There will also be an open-air cafe provided by Cafe No. 1 so people can relax with a coffee and bite to eat whilst enjoying the music. Performances will take place at 10.30am, 11.30am and 12.30am and the line-up is as follows:
PLUS AN EXTRA DATE ADDED ON WEDNESDAY 1ST SEPTEMBER WITH DUMBFOUNDUS (PERFORMANCES AT 11.30AM, 12.30PM AND 1.30PM)
