What's on in Pelton

Durham, England

Pelton sits snug in County Durham with more character than most villages get credit for. We usually find a market stall or two popping up near the town centre, while the local community hall often hosts something that makes neighbours laugh until it hurts. Even if there are no specific venues listed today, you can bet on a village fete arriving soon enough. Near Here keeps an eye on what's brewing so you don't have to waste time hunting for fun in this quiet corner of the north east.

FRI 24 APR: Blitzkrieg + Yesterday's Heroes

This one is rescheduled from last year, and we can’t wait. Blitzkrieg are a punk band with a long history, and have been recording and performing since the 70’s. And of course we all know Yesterday’s Heroes, as three of our own- Lewis Johnson, Tony and Scott Tulip and the rest of the band, bringing their great set of punk covers and originals back to the Three Tuns.
