Music and Entertainment

“Friday Night at the Horne” events feature music and entertainment on selected evenings from autumn to spring, with more festive evenings for Christmas, New Year and other special occasions. Sometimes, the events are not on a Friday, so we publicise them as “Night Out at the Horne”.

We include Flicks In The Sticks, and Stretton Players events that have featured on this website in the archive too.

Current events are shown on the home page and on the events booking page. Book tickets on-line or from our booking agents in Church Stretton.

Our archive contains notices for each event. Just click on the pictures below to read more about them, and scroll left and right to see the others.

Or: Try searching for an event or performer.

Enclose names in quotes: e.g. “Ian Bailey”
