After last night’s display of morris dancing, tonight The Ship Inn hosted accordion music as Wokingham’s Living Advent Calendar.

The Peach Street pub welcomed the 15th day of live entertainment, which is being held every night to the run-up to Christmas.

Music this evening came from the Reading Accordion Group, who performed some suitably festive tunes to the delight of the gathered audience.

The show is just one of a number of special events taking place in Wokingham town centre every day between now and Christmas Eve. A live performance will be held somewhere in Wokingham at 6.15pm or 4pm at weekends.

On Wednesday, December 16, we’ll be coming to you from Martin and Pole in Broad Street at 6.15pm. What will it be? We’ll tell you tomorrow!

You can check all the venues in the calendar by logging on to our interactive map.
