On Friday 31 October at 8.30pm, Dracula – The Panto! will take place in the Newcastle Centre, bringing the Hallowe’en night festivities to a ‘spooktacular’ close. And on Saturday 1 November at 8pm, popular band The 4 of Us will perform their 25th anniversary acoustic show at Down Arts Centre, Downpatrick.

Perfectly timed to coincide with the end of the annual Hallowtides Festival fireworks display, Dracula – The Panto! offers festival-goers the perfect way to round off the spookiest night of the year. And to make life easy, the performance is perfectly located in the Newcastle Centre at the end of the promenade, just a stroll from the prime location for watching the fireworks.

There’s a Vampire behind you! Dracula – The Panto! is an hilarious spoof of the Dracula story done in panto style. A bewildering series of costume changes with just two performers brings you a Dame, a naughty Count, countless other characters and great songs, including Bat Out Of Hell, In The Midnight Hour and Bad Moon Rising. The performance promises an evening of first-class fun for both the young and the young at heart (don’t think you have to bring a child to have a good time!)

Presented by ISOSCELES in association with USEFUL IDIOTS, Dracula – The Panto! has been hugely popular with audiences in Northern Ireland for a number of years, offering a professional show that is great fun for all ages. Do come – the Master is expecting you…

The 4 OF US bring their 25th anniversary acoustic show to Down Arts Centre on Saturday 1 November at 8pm, showcasing songs from their brand new album, as well as songs from their extensive back catalogue.

From their first anthem, Mary, still a radio favourite, through to the UK-charting She Hits Me, to Sunlight, the band has notched up over two decades of radio hits and six top-20 charting albums. Don’t miss this rare chance to catch them live.
