Girl Group

Girl Group play The Polar Bear Music Club on Wednesday 21 October, with the music starting at 7:30 pm. It's a mid-week one, so if you're heading in from outside the city, you'll want to keep that in mind.

For those who don't know it, the Polar Bear — known locally as the Bear — is on Spring Bank, 229 Spring Bank, HU3 1LR. It's a proper Hull venue that does live music, comedy and art, with a monthly Polar Bear Jazz Club dedicated to modern jazz from regional talent. Every Tuesday it runs THE SESH, a free-entry 18+ session built with the promoter The Sesh, pairing local, national and international musicians with weekly free-entry club nights alongside ticketed gigs.

The venue has a bit of a survival story behind it, too. It closed during the 2020 pandemic while under the ownership of a national company, and its previous management brought it back as a Community Interest Company, with a triumphant return in 2021. It's supported by Growing Enterprise in Communities and The Key Fund, so it's a place that's come back on the strength of local backing.

Tickets for the night start from £13.00, and with the music kicking off at 7:30 pm, it's a straightforward mid-week gig at one of the city's most active live rooms.
