“Every part of the store is a family affair, and the live events are no exception,” says event manager Julia Bentley-Dawkes. “Here at Dawkes, we are passionate about creating, inspiring and supporting musicians of all ages, and as such, we have curated a programme of free and paid events for everyone, aged from 0 to 100+. We have seen first-hand how music brings people together, and our aim is to provide an opportunity for everyone to hear really great quality live music and to inspire them to embrace music in their lives, whether that be learning an instrument, joining a choir or going to see more live music events.”
