Description
Lounge on the sofa next to our baby grand piano, press a few buttons in the recording studio or put on some tunes in the DJ booth. Have a go on any of our instruments (we have over fifty!) or just find out more about getting started. See how quickly you can make music with our instant loop station in the dance studio - no previous experience necessary.
Plus you can meet our music leaders and find out about our award-winning, friendly music groups, competitions and gig opportunities.
We're giving away free snacks and drinks to help you feel at home and don't forget to relax on our chaise longue. No really, we have a chaise longue.
