This year’s Late Summer Afternoon Garden Party at Orpington Liberal Club culminates in a one-hour set from HOLLY’S BUDDIES TRIO with lots of great songs from the late 50’s & early 60’s featuring Tony Dobson (guitar /vocals), Manny Leeman (guitar / vocal harmonies) & Peter Standen (bass/vocal harmonies).

We start at 1.30 with 45 minutes of floorspots, and then during the afternoon, there will be a succession of pre-booked slots from outstanding performers, including Swans Vocals, Christine Halpin, Seb Handley. Andy Smythe, Mieko & Curtis, Robin Slater & Pat Dobson.

Keeping our fingers-crossed for good weather. But if it’s poor, the event will still go ahead but move into the club’s hall.

It’s free for OLC and CAMRA members, with a £1 charge to non-members who attend as guests.

The OLC premises & CAMRA award-winning bar will be open from 12.30pm. It’s a CARD payment only.

There’s a CASH hat collection to pay the guests and help cover costs. The minimum suggested contribution is £6 per head, but please give more if you can afford it.

After 6 there’s the option of Quiche & salad supper & a few more floorspots.
