Young Promoters Pembrokeshire to launch with a homegrown Punk Night at the Queens Hall Narberth
--
Excitement is building at the Queens Hall Narberth this week as the newly-formed Young Promoters Pembrokeshire group get ready to launch their first ever gig at the Venue on Fri March 28th from 8pm.
Rock out with some of the best young punk bands on the scene right now. Lacross Club, REDREDRED and Pub Culture will bring their raw energy and rebellious spirit to the Queens Hall stage.
This upcoming gig is just one of several being organised by the Young Promoters Pembrokeshire in the coming months. Following a successful bid to Anthem Cymru, the Queens Hall Narberth launched the Making Music Events: Young Promoter in Pembrokeshire project in January 2025, which has brought together 10 young people from the County to learn about and undertake the planning and delivery of a series of live music events.
Lara Herde, the Queens Hall Manager said
“We are delighted to have such engaged and energised young people on board. With the full support of the professional team at the Hall, they have designed and programmed 5 gigs promoting a vast array of contemporary music from Wales. From contract negotiation to poster design and marketing, the group have had the opportunity to learn it all”
Anthem Cymru designed the funding to address the specific barrier of geographical and rural isolation for Young People in Wales through the medium of live music.
Kofi Acheampong, the Fund Manager said
“We are thrilled to enable the empowerment of the young people through this project, helping them become active citizens within their community, bringing them together to develop promoter skills and music interests, and introducing them to pathways into the music industry they might not have otherwise had the opportunity to learn about.”
So don’t miss the first YPP gig on 28 March from 8pm at the Queens Hall Narberth. It promises to be a gritty and electrifying atmosphere of heart-pounding music and pure punk chaos!
Save 25 April, 30 May, 27 June and 25 July in your diary for the rest of the upcoming YPP gigs including a Lounge night with soulful powerhouse twins, Nookee, a Folk night with Forte project member, Tomos Newman + local superstar, Connor Jillions, an Indie Rock night and more.
Tickets are available to purchase via thequeenshall.org.uk or call Box Office on 01834 861212. Door tickets will be available.
