We are delighted to announce a new addition to this year’s Barnsley Live: a dedicated outdoor stage in Mandela Gardens, curated by the much-loved local record store, Vinyl Underground.
Located in the heart of Barnsley on The Victorian Arcade, Vinyl Underground is a cornerstone of the town’s music scene, offering a carefully curated selection of new and second-hand vinyl. For Barnsley Live, they will be taking their passion for music outdoors, programming an exciting line-up of DJs who will be spinning vinyl from 3:00pm until 8:00pm.
This vibrant new space will be open from 12:00pm to 8:00pm on Saturday 21 June and will provide a family-friendly, relaxed environment throughout the day. Visitors can look forward to:
-
Live music and DJs, with Vinyl Underground’s specially curated sets running in the afternoon and evening
-
Interactive performances for children, presented by Helter Skelter
-
A draught bar, featuring (pending confirmation) a selection of locally brewed beers
-
A food truck offering refreshments (details to be announced)
-
Lawn games and informal seating, ideal for families and festival-goers of all ages
This new stage promises to be a welcome addition to Barnsley Live, offering a laid-back space to enjoy quality music, family entertainment, and local hospitality. Whether you’re a dedicated record collector or simply looking for a relaxing afternoon in the sun, Mandela Gardens will have something for everyone.
Stay tuned for further updates on the DJ line-up, food offerings, and more.
