Description

Join us at the RIG Arts Studio, Tobacco Warehouse, on the 17th October for GIG@RIG

Get ready for an evening of great live music performances by some of Inverclyde’s most exciting new musicians and bands. Rock School bands will take the stage to showcase their impressive skills in a spooky, Galoshans-inspired setting that’s sure to get you in the Halloween spirit.

It’s a free event but limited due to the size of the studio  so make sure to book your space in advance to guarantee entry!

Throughout the gig, the bands will have tables set up with their  merchandise and music for sale, so bring some cash and support  young  local talent.

Free earplugs will be available at the venue for those who need them.

If you have any access requirements or questions, feel free to email us at info@rigarts.org.
