Âé¶¹Éç Introducing

Available for over a year

Ever since the statue to Motörhead frontman Lemmy was unveiled in the middle of Burslem, there’s been a real buzz around the mother town of Stoke. There's been mini festivals in the Market Square, thousands of visitors from around the world coming to see the monument, and a Motörhead-themed bar opening its doors. And now it’s building towards something much bigger... The historic Queen’s Theatre is being renovated and brought back to life as a 950-seat concert venue called Kilmister Halls.
