Ciarafest 13
Hi all, just to let you know the next Ciarafest is now definitely confirmed for Friday, May 8. We've had some problems with people initially letting us down (and others really trying hard to fit us in but failing), so it wasn't 100 per cent until this morning, but we're chuffed to announce that Chris T-T (solo), Paul Goodwin (with band) and Ellie Walker are confirmed, with one more act TBC.
Breaking £5k
Just a quick note to say that, to date, Ciarafest has handed in cheques to Premrose (the charity that raises funds to buy equipment for the Rosey Maternity Ward at Adenbrooke's Hospital) totalling £5,718.70. We'd like to take this opportunity to again thank everyone who participates in any way - from the bands who perform for free to the punters who pay to come and see them - and have helped make the Ciarafest nights so special. Cheers!
Now buy a T-shirt!
If you have a Facebook account, head over and join the Ciarafest group for pics, gossip and to put some names to those Ciarafest faces.
Ciarafest T-shirts
The first batch of limited edition Ciarafest T-shirts are now on sale, and they are just £10 - a blinking bargain, as it has a front and back print (see above) and comes in black, Superman blue and red (and all sorts of strange sizes too). If you want one but can't make the gig, email us and we'll sort something out, although don't go promising your long lost relative in Outer Mongolia one in time for Christmas!
Ciarafest.co.uk Is Here!
Hi, and welcome to the Ciarafest website. There's not an awful lot up here yet, but keep checking back for more content and news of Ciarafest related stuff. Rest assured, Ciarafest 11 will be along in 2008, but no details have been confirmed - they'll be on this page first as soon as they are. In the meantime, if you're in a band and want to play, send us an email; just bear in mind it's a 100 capacity venue in Cambridge and we won't pay you (although we'll buy you a pint) - can't say fairer than that! Famous people welcome - we're not snobs.
If you've somehow arrived here without knowing what Ciarafest is, or want more information on what we do and why we do it, have a look at the 'About Us' section, which should fill in all the blanks. If it doesn't, feel free to email us at ciara@ciarafest.co.uk. Also, there is a full list of previous Ciarafests in the 'Events' section.
Finally, if you have anything Ciarafest related on your site, let us know and we'll link to it or something clever like that. Again, email us and we'll get onto it in our own sweet time. To start things off, here's a lil' Q&A that The Explorer did with yours truly: http://www.explorermagazine.co.uk/magazines/24/whatson/
