Regrettably we have been informed by the band that they have now had to postpone this concert due to circumstances beyond their control.
With over 40,000 visitors a year now attending concerts and other events at Acapela Studio we have joined with Calon Hearts and installed a defibrillator in the bar!
Sadly we have been informed recently that Martin will no longer be able to complete his duo tour with Eliza due to ill health. Please see below a message from Eliza.
Unfortunately due to circumstances out of our control the concert has now been moved to 15th August 2026. All tickets and tables have been automatically transferred to the new date.
