Statement by the Mayor of Looe, Cllr Hannaford

 

Looe Pubs and Clubs Save the Day

As Mayor of Looe I share the disappointment felt by many at the cancellation of Looe Live 2022. The festival has become a key highlight of our calendar and I know that everyone had been looking forward to welcoming it back after the pandemic. During the past few months the whole town has joined together to prepare for this year’s event and I would like to pay tribute to everyone involved for their hard work and commitment.

However, while the festival itself is not going ahead, the spirit of Looe Saves the Day will still be burning bright in the town over the weekend of 16 to 18 September – with a fantastic programme of live music and entertainment taking place in our local pubs and clubs.

I’m meeting with the pubs and clubs next week so the Town Council can understand how we can help publicise what’s happening through our channels.

We have some amazing local artists in Looe who will be performing in venues across the town throughout the whole weekend. Add in the chance to sample our award-winning local food and drink, enjoy our renowned hospitality and experience some of the many other activities on offer, and you can still have a real weekend to remember.
