Please arrive in time to be ready for warm up at 6.30. Warm up rooms will be sent out in a general email (added later – for us, it’s the Chapel). If you are in more than 1 band, feel free to warm up with whichever band you think needs you!
Please bring a plate of finger food for the reception. Leave it in the kitchen as you arrive.
