PLEASE, PLEASE READ THIS...IT DOES AFFECT YOU

now for the exciting bit for you to read through!!...yes, really.  Unfortunately you can't just roll up as you usually do.  Things are a bit different and initially as you come into the hall, it will look a bit different to you too, a bit empty for a start....all that and we can't sing (replacing that with humming behind our masks)....but it's still great to sit and hear and enjoy live music with other people.

'Virtual' just isn't the same!!!  Well, that is what our last audience thought.

There is no raffle either (but we are working on that one!). 📦📦📦📦📦

COVID SECURE or keeping you safe......

Working with Nettleham Village Hall committee and the national governing body for village halls ACRE and to comply with current government regulations:

COVID SECURE

1.  The body count (!) is a maximum of forty-eight (counting us, the sound man, the artist(s)......so audience size can obviously slightly vary as a result.)

2.  TICKET price is £12.  Please have correct cash/cheque (payable to Lincoln Festival) ready in a sealed envelope to hand in before the concert to Marianne/Andy at the door.

3.  A steward will be waiting outside the hall to direct you to an entrance.

4.  There will be four exits.

5.  SOCIAL DISTANCING will be maintained

by showing you to your designated seat. 

You will sit in spaced rows, socially distanced, either singly or with one other person in your household or in your bubble.  

Andy says this socially distanced seating makes the hall look like an examination hall, so initially that is a little bit off putting.....particularly because paired seating is at a TABLE. 

6.  There is NO BAR.  Please bring your own refreshments.🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷.  Paired seating has tables.

 7. MASKS must be worn while entering the hall and when moving around in the hall AND when you are seated during the performance, and you will be reminded to use hand gel as you enter the building.

.....and because we are all wearing masks as you come in we can't greet you with a smile...but it's in our eyes and we are right pleased to see you!

😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄

BUYING TICKETS 🎴🎴🎴🎴🎴🎴

Obviously with  a maximum of forty people allowed, don't hang around....although we do keep a waiting list and we inevitably get a few last minute cancellations, which with this sized audience we are particularly anxious to fill, so we will take pains to contact you if you do end up on the waiting list.

Likewise if you find you can't come after ordering a ticket please let us know asap.

ALL tickets must be booked in advance by phoning Andy Watkins on 01522 535770 or emailing on watkins.folk@gmail.com. 

🃙🃙🃙🃙🃙🃙🃙🃙🃙🃙🃙🃙🃙

WE HAVE NO CARD FACILITIES. You give us the exact ticket money (or a cheque made out to 'Lincoln Festival') in an envelope on the concert night.

💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

We will need your telephone number/email for track and trace, BEFORE the concert, so we will ask you for this information when you contact Andy to book a ticket.

🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍

 We continue to have to respond to the current situation by negotiating with artists re concert dates.  All are most anxious to continue with our performance schedule.  We will update any date changes as they occur.

🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍

WHAT IS COMING NEXT?
💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚 Some fantastic acts...yet again.  Old ones you love, and new ones we think you will love.

Remember we never book artists unless we have seen them perform.

But please if you see an act you enjoy, let us know.  We aim to please and we want to sell our concerts.
and we can't get everywhere.
