Fri 11th May - Bob Marley Never Died Reggae Night

So many people are currently heading to the movies to see M A R L E Y, the film of his life directed by Glaswegian film director Kevin MacDonald. Here at the African Caribbean Centre we love Bob Marley and to us he never died. So, on Friday 11th May, with the help of UR Kreativity and the sensational sounds of Bass Warrior, the ACC will host a tribute to the great man. For the best in reggae and the absolute best in Marley, get yourself down here from 9pm to 2am. Ticket prices are £8 including a plate of traditional food from Africa and the Caribbean. Or you can pay £5 entry and buy the food once you're in, it's up to you. Students get in for £3 (not inc food), we have reasonable bar prices and great staff particularly Anne (who just happens to be writing this) :-)
