Whats On This Week: A Vintage Fair, A Daytime Disco, And A Comedy Night With a Few Tickets Left!
Morning! This week’s a good one. You can spend the weekend hunting antiques and vintage pieces, dancing to 80s bangers in broad daylight, or catching Al Murray while he does the talking for everyone who bites their tongue in public.
This week’s highlights:
Antiques and Vintage Fair lands at Derby Conference Centre
80s Day Disco at The Church is nearly sold out, so the fluorescent crowd is moving fast
Al Murray brings the Pub Landlord to Vaillant Live, with only a few tickets left

Five hours of 80s anthems, neon lights, and grown adults remembering every lyric to songs they swear they never play at home. Madonna, MJ, Prince, Whitney, and the big choruses that turn the place into a singalong.
Most ticket tiers have already gone, so leaving it late is a risky hobby.

Al Murray turns up with the Pub Landlord act and spends the night saying the bits everyone else only says in the car after. It is loud, sharp, and designed to leave your face aching from laughing.
