Coventry Music Museum Third Birthday

Feature by AndyHoldcroft, 16 Oct 2016


Coventry Music Museum, the museum celebrating Coventry & Warwickshire music, is celebrating its Third Birthday on Saturday 12th November.

As the Museum goes from strength to strength, attracting 12,000 visitors from all around the globe, constantly adding to its collection, mounting regular definitive exhibitions (next up in 2017 is one dedicated to The Enemy with full & generous support from the band) and notably in 2016 launching the "Articles in Sound" multi-platform history of Coventry & Warwickshire music.

The birthday celebrations start at noon and as a special attraction, singing star Mark Rattray will be the subject of a question & answer session hosted the Museum's founder, Pete Chambers BEM.
