MelodyTimes Bognor Regis

We meet on Sunday afternoons at 2.15pm, so everyone can travel in daylight. Our friendly musical afternoons are held at the very lovely Jubilee Hall in Elmer Road, Middleton-on-Sea, Bognor Regis, PO22 6JA. (See notes regarding postcode in directions) Doors normally open a half an hour before the concert starts. Admission is £10.00 per person, including complimentary tea or coffee at the interval, and is payable in cash on the door. If you have any queries or would like more information about our Bognor Regis concerts, please e-mail info@melodytimes.co.uk or Telephone Dave on 07925 383 744 or Michael on 07748 113 975.

Directions

The Jubilee Hall Car Park in Middleton-On-Sea is accessed from Shrubbs Drive, a turning south off of Elmer Road, with the medical group building on the corner (more or less opposite a Lloyds Pharmacy). If using a SatNav, enter PO22 7SR, as, using the official hall postcode above would probably take you to the wrong place! Having turned in to Shrubbs Drive, turn immediately left into the car park, and then the Jubilee Hall is at the far end.

History

Bognor Regis MelodyTimes started life in the 1977 as the Regis Organ & Keyboard Club. It has a long tradition of providing entertainment of the highest quality, plus has quite a lot of members who play well themselves, often playing an annual concert night and also meeting with one another between events to share company and music. Following the sad passing of one of the leading lights of the group, organist John Scott, Michael Wooldridge stepped in to keep the concert nights going and, following a publicity drive, it has been rewarding to see an upturn in audience numbers over the last couple of years, with the events now being run by Dave Braithwaite.
