Lil Rockers

Lil Rockers are playing The Drill on Thursday 29 October, a family-friendly gig built for young music fans. It's a professional live band playing two sets of popular hits in a safe, welcoming environment with carefully managed sound levels, so children get the excitement of a real gig without the volume. The show is recommended for ages six and over, though younger children are welcome at the discretion of a parent or guardian. Ear defenders are recommended, and foam ear plugs are available free at the venue. Adults must be accompanied by children.

The setlist pulls from a broad range of popular music, with songs by Olivia Rodrigo, Blink-182, Bruno Mars, Chappell Roan, George Ezra and Taylor Swift. The band plays two sets, so there's a break in the middle rather than one long run. It's a professional live band on stage, not a backing track, so the music is played live in the room.

The Drill on Free School Lane was established in 1890 as the Drill Hall and served as a military training facility before being refurbished into a versatile arts and community hub with a capacity of around 500. It now hosts live music, theatre, comedy and community activities. The show runs from 14:00 to 19:00, with doors opening at 14:00. General admission is £7.70, which includes fees and booking fee, and adults require a free ticket.
