Allan Parkinson was a founder of Barnol
Allan Parkinson was a founder of Barnoldswick’s great local music scene. A musician, performer and tutor, Allan inspired generations of guitar players and Barnoldswick bands.
Tragically, Allan passed away on
the Bands On The Square stage in 2017.In memory of Allan, and to commemorate his contribution to the life of our town, the stage at BOTS has been the Allan Parkinson Stage since 2018.
Tomorrow, Monday 15th May, the crew will once more be erecting the Allan Parkinson Stage on the Town Square in readiness for BOTS at the Spring Bank Holiday weekend. Work is due to start at 8am.
(Normally, the stage would have been installed a week later, but Beyoncé has bounced Barlick from our preferred date. Talk about getting your priorities right, eh?!)
Once the staging is in place, there won’t be much BOTS activity on the Town Square until next weekend (20th/21st), when the set-up will begin in earnest.
The square will remain available for use during this next week, with staging in place.
If you would like to become involved with volunteering for BOTS, please send us a message. Thanks!
