MetalTalk venue Bannerman’s has announced they are to temporarily close due to “an ongoing ingress of water.” The venue will host Swell Maps and The Cat Burgers on 26 April before carrying out major works.
“Due to an ongoing ingress of water at Bannerman’s, we have had to take the decision to temporarily close and have some major works carried out,” a statement read. “April 26th will be the last show we host until all work is completed.
“We anticipate this to be a minimum of two months. We are going to use this time to also make some improvements to the venue, which will be a positive outcome in the end.
“We are currently trying to reschedule some of the shows that are in place or help find the band’s alternative places to play. In the case where this is not possible, please seek a refund from your point of purchase.
“We appreciate your understanding on this, and we look forward to inviting you back to an improved venue.”
Bannerman’s Bar, in Cowgate, Edinburgh, is an established venue on the circuit, with a well-known reputation for looking after the bands that play there. We all wish them the best and look forward to them being back stronger than ever.
