As May comes to a close we are throwing a party to help continue to raise funds for our Crowdfunder campaign. We invite our in-house talent and resident DJs CSGRV, Norman and Pete Bennett to bring the vibes from 6pm - 2am.

LINE UP

CSGRV

Norman

Pete Bennett

CSGRV cut his teeth as a resident at Village Underground playing regularly at his Superstion event with the likes of Jeff Mills, Ben Sims, Rødhåd, Luke Slater and Blawan, known for his deep and psychedelic strain of techno. He now has delved in to digging and diving into the beautiful world of Afro and Brazilian-centric jazz, disco and house.

Norman held down a residency with us through the winter for our Roast n Rhythm’s Sunday event playing all kinds of Latin-soaked broken beats. He’s excited to return for an evening of dance floor fillers. Expect beats licked with soul, jazz and Afro-Latin influences with some heavy hitters later on.

Pete Bennett has been a mainstay at Grow playing every Thursday for our Jazz events, always bringing new finds from his record shop digging expeditions. With over 30 years of DJing, collecting records and throwing parties Pete brings his knowledge and depth of music showcasing jazz, rockabilly and blues.

We’re at a critical juncture. The only way we can envisage survival to get to our 11th year is with your help. We’re asking for your support to raise £40,000. This will enable us to activate a plan that will not only keep us open but also make us more self-sufficient and sustainable.

Crowdfunder

We’re committed to maintaining the quality and ethical ethos of our food, drink, and cultural offerings. We want to keep our dedicated venue team together, who are already working at full capacity. Your support will give us the best possible chance of financial viability in the long run.

• Invest in Solar Power: We plan to install solar panels for our studios and venue, making us one of the first venues in the UK powered by solar. This will significantly cut our energy bills and inspire others to follow suit.

• Become a Community Interest Company (CIC): As a CIC, we’ll have more options to apply for funding for our cultural programme and be eligible for Cultural VAT Exemption.

• Extend Our License Terms: We aim to extend the license terms of our garden terrace, allowing the outside bar to be open later.

For more info and to donate.

Free before 9pm, £5 tickets on the door all night long.

Discover the latest addition to our offerings: the Friday Special at Grow. Enjoy a generous 25% discount on all food items during our happy hour, held every Friday from 5-7 PM.
