A sub-tropical soundclash of authentic ska, vintage basslines and gospel fire. The Big Bamboo is a lush, high-energy, dress-to-impress spectacular from The Bo Nanafana Social Club – worshippers of damn fine music, dancing, dressing-up and divine decoration. For one glorious night, expect heat, colour, rhythm and joy-soaked atmosphere. Tropical finery is encouraged. Dancing is inevitable!

Natty Bo’s Top Cats
Delivering a feel-good explosion of authentic ska, rocksteady and early reggae, Natty Bo’s Top Cats bring heavyweight horns, irresistible rhythms and charismatic vintage vocals that channel the golden era of Jamaican music. Think Studio One swagger, classic 60s ska grooves and dancehall joy, all delivered with raw charm, tight musicianship and a dancefloor-first spirit that gets every crowd skanking.

DJ Chris Tofu & Debralee Wells
A one-of-a-kind sonic fusion that lifts the roof and stirs the soul. Chris Tofu lays down swing, vintage basslines, rootsy global beats and deep, dancefloor-shaking soul, while Debralee Wells ignites the room with powerhouse gospel vocals and electrifying MC skills! Retro-future, festival-ready and impossible to stand still to – come and celebrate!

Cabaret from Abigail Collins
A cabaret firecracker, part acrobat, part comedian, part diva. With Vaudeville glamour, filthy humour and jaw-dropping circus skill, Abigail Collins flips from fierce to hilarious in a heartbeat. She’ll charm you, roast you, dance circles around you and absolutely command the room. A guaranteed show highlight.

Arts make life better

Norfolk & Norwich Festival brings tens of thousands of people together in celebration – it has been doing this for over 250 years. Through our May Festival and our year-round arts education work, focusing on children and young people, we lead and support celebration, creativity and curiosity in communities across Norfolk and the region.

This year we begin an exciting new initiative, Festival Connect & Create that will bring creative opportunities to those schools and communities with least provision. Creativity transforms people’s lives. It builds cohesive communities, develops vital skills and supports health and wellbeing. We want more people to have access to creative opportunities.

Please consider donating to support and develop this work. With your help we can increase access to the life changing power of the arts.
