NEW!! Tribute Night Live: Ska Man International (7.30pm – 10.30pm) – free to attend

The Event Village, Play Close Park, Melton Mowbray

Start date: 5 June, 2026

Get ready to skank the night away as we launch a brand-new addition to our summer events calendar: Tribute Night Live!
Kicking off our first live tribute evening is none other than The Ska Man, the explosive stage persona of veteran performer Gareth Severn. Returning to the East Midlands from the sunny shores of Cyprus, Gareth brings over 25 years of entertainment expertise and a lifelong passion for subculture music directly to the Melton Mowbray stage.

Conceived in 2014, this high-energy, island-tested tribute show delivers over two hours of non-stop Ska, Reggae, Rocksteady, and 2-Tone classics. Complete with a top-tier professional PA system, immersive lighting, authentic backdrops, and multiple costume changes, The Ska Man puts his heart and soul into a performance that promises to have the entire Events Village moving.

When he isn’t touring, Gareth spins the very best in traditional and modern beats as a resident presenter for Boot Boy Radio. Don’t miss this incredible, free-to-attend night of live music right in the heart of town. Grab your friends, head down to the Events Village, and join us for an unforgettable summer evening!

All ages are welcome; however, under-14s must be accompanied by an adult.

  • Date: Friday 5th June
  • Time: 7.30pm to 10.30pm
  • Events Village, Play Close Park

Can’t wait to party with you!
