DISCOUNTED days at the York Barbican are on offer for city groups who want to use the facility next year.

The operator SMG offers concessionary dates as part of its lease agreement with City of York Council, and now wants to hear from anyone interested for 2019. Events should be open and accessible to all, and should give local people chance to get involved or attend cultural events they would not usually see. This yea the York Music Hub Festival will have one of the days, with 1,000 children and young people from across the city performing. Visit www.york.gov.uk or email charlie.croft@york.gov.uk. The deadline is Friday, April 27.
