Belfast Twestival Success

Along with the Twestival events of over 175 cities across the globe this Thursday, 12th February, Belfast hosted its very own event with a small but passionate bunch in support of Charity:Water.

The event took place Lavery’s Bunker, the venue was kindly given for free and allowed all door takings for the night will be donated to the cause.

There was an entertaining Rock Band tournament with more than one band not making it past the second line of the song! There were DJs, and a raffle with a host of prizes including a £40 meal voucher for McHughs, signed Foy Vance CD, 2 copies of the book from Web Standardistas, £25 Tesco voucher and a replica Stratocaster generously donated by Belfast Guitar Emporium.

The event was a massive success with over £500 raised for the charity. A massive thanks to those who donated prizes for the raffle and to IcedCoffee and GoodOnPaper for taking the time to get the event off the ground.
