Entertainment in Hebden Bridge & the Calder Valley

Getting there

Hebden Bridge is reached via Halifax and the A646. The valley road can be busy, so we plan arrival times with plenty of margin.

Venues in the Calder Valley

• Converted mills and characterful event spaces
• Pubs and inns with function rooms
• Rural wedding venues on the hillsides
• Community halls for parties and local events
• Cricket and sports clubs

Events we book

Weddings, birthdays and community events make up most of our bookings. The valley's love of live music means acts with genuine musicianship, such as guitar vocalists and live duos, are particularly popular.

Live musicianship

The upper Calder Valley has a reputation for live music, and audiences here tend to appreciate performers who play as well as sing. Guitar vocalists such as Andy Lee Marsh and Ian Howarth, piano vocalists such as Adam Press and Nigel Passey, and live bands like Triple X are all strong choices for the area's characterful venues.

Choosing an act

For characterful venues, consider an acoustic duo or live vocalist. For larger events, a function band. Older buildings may have power or sound limitations, so tell us about the venue when you enquire.
