“We open this Saturday so it’s all hands to the deck. We’re almost fully booked already actually, we’ve had fantastic support,” Will said.
And the date isn’t lost on Will – “I’d be a fool not to choose this as my opening date,” he joked.
“We had a soft launch on Wednesday 29th March for friends and family to see how everything works.”
Up and coming band Cascade will perform at the opening.
