Horsham MelodyTimes Closes

Saturday 13th June

We are sad to report that Horsham MelodyTimes Concerts has just had their last concert, bringing to an end over 45 years of 'our kind of music' in the town.  Sadly, post-pandemic, numbers attending never recovered sufficiently to a level which was viable, so despite best efforts to encourage attendance and under-writing the losses for quite a time, it has become impossible to continue.

It is hoped that former attendees will find their way to enjoy the warm welcome at either Crawley Keyboard Club or Bognor Regis MelodyTimes.
