A year of musical fundraising led by the mayor of Lancaster will end with a bang this month.
The Music with the Mayor project was launched by Councillor Abi Mills last year, to raise funds for Citizens Advice North Lancashire.
The closing fundraiser will be held at The Platform, Morecambe on Sunday May 11.
The campaign has included everything from sea shanties and punk to folk tunes about the witch trials.
They even welcomed world-renowned singer-songwriter Frank Turner to the Lancaster Town Hall stage.
“This project has been a highlight of my year as mayor,” said Councillor Mills.
“Music has brought our community together while supporting an organisation that makes a real difference. I can’t wait to celebrate everything we’ve achieved together.”
The line-up for the final show will include Off the Rails, Pete Moser and Friends, Owlys, Katoush and Chveni Khmebi (Georgian choir).
Expect dancing, joy, and a few surprises as they reveal the total amount raised over the past year.
“This has truly been a team effort,” said Joanna Young, chief executive of Citizens Advice North Lancashire.
“From the artists and volunteers to every person who bought a ticket - you’ve helped create something really special.”
🎟️ Tickets are available via the Platform website, in person at the box office, or from universe.com/mwtem2025
