what's on
Thursday 2 June: INDIE/GRUNGE NIGHT - with live music from Dan Fraser. Wear your 90s gear and lets all let our hair down! Requests are possible - so let us know your fave tunes from this era/genre
Sunday 5 June: CIRCULAR WALK ** S P E CI A L **- all are welcome to join this slow amble along quiet lanes and footpaths. Set off from the pub at 10.45am as usual, but this time we'll be doing a very short walk for a very special reason... One of our flock has MS, and is road testing a new walking aid. We'll be walking with her (and her new aid!) and when we get back to the pub we'll be raising funds not only for The Brain Tumour Charity as usual - but we'll also be fundraising to help towards the cost of the walking aid. We'll also set up a Crowdfunder page to help raise the funds - link will be added soon.
Wednesday 15 June: BUSKING WITH LADY J - She's back for another magical night at Sweffling - expect the usual eclectic acts and warm welcome! Music, spoken word, comedy - all welcome! COME JOIN OUR OPEN MIC PAAARTY!!!
Thursday 16 June: COMMUNITY SUPPER - an opportunity to meet and share food with other local residents. To book a space please email Peter at peterm491961@gmail.com
Saturday 18 June: SOLSTICE CELEBRATION WITH LIVE MUSIC FROM RUM OL' BUOYS AND A GIRL - our favourite way to celebrate! We have been seeing in each new season this way for 10 years - come and enjoy the beautiful music, sing along and maybe have a dance. Let's celebrate summer!
Tuesday 21 June: RENDHAM MUMMERS PERFORMANCE IN THE GARDEN Help the Rendham Mummers celebrate the Summer Solstice at the Sweffling White Horse on June 21st and on July 23rd at the park in Rendham. Both performances begin at 7.30 pm - be there early. Their latest offering, The Armada Reaches Rendham, is set in the year 1588 and Drake has won the Queen a great victory. To celebrate he has organised a trip to Rendham. Unbeknown to all, a Spanish warship goes aground off Dunwich and four Spanish sailors make it to shore where they rendezvous with the traitorous Sir William of Bruisyard. As the Queen dances with the villagers the Catholic plotters draw near. Will they succeed where the Armada failed? There is only one way to find out, come and join us for some riotous fun and help celebrate the year’s longest day. There will be a cash collection taken at both performances for two local charities: the IP17 foodbank and Suffolk Accident Rescue Service.
Wednesday 22 June: MORRIS DANCING - with Barley Brigg and Pretty Grim. More info TBA very soon
Friday 19 August: FOLK EAST FESTIVAL - have you got your tickets yet??
Fancy playing a tune or two in the pub?
We have a lovely piano (in tune!) and a guitar in the pub - if you fancy playing a tune at a time when we have no other live music please feel free. Entertaining the rabble will usually earn you some free drinks!!
Got a live act you think will go down well?
We do also book paid acts in the pub - although our pub is very small so our fee is too, and we only have room for 3 band members maximum. Acoustic (unplugged) acts only. To enquire about performing please email swefflingwhitehorse@hotmail.com
