Beyond Radio will be broadcasting live from the official opening of Black Sheep Coffee's new Lancaster store later this month - and you are invited!

Your local radio station for Lancaster and Morecambe Bay will bring you all the excitement with a special three-hour outside broadcast from the new coffee shop on Cheapside, Lancaster, on Tuesday June 30 from 11am until 2pm.

You can expect live interviews, opening day celebrations and plenty of atmosphere from the city centre as Beyond Radio marks the arrival of the popular national coffee brand to Lancaster.

Adding to the fun, Beyond Bear, Beyond Radio's popular mascot, will be making a special appearance throughout the event, meeting visitors and helping to celebrate the launch.

To mark the opening, Black Sheep Coffee will also be offering a range of special opening day promotions, including selected coffees from just £1, available on Tuesday June 30 only.

The event will also see the launch of a new Beyond Radio competition giving listeners the chance to win £100 worth of Black Sheep Coffee vouchers.

The competition will run for two weeks across the station, giving coffee lovers plenty of opportunities to get involved and enjoy the new Lancaster venue.
