Hide AdM&B work with some of the biggest names in comedy, music and sports and will hope that this is the first of many events at Temple Newsam over the coming years.
Promoters are confident that the event will be something to look forward to next year as COVID-19 restrictions are lifted. However, because of the size of the location, plans can be adapted to run the event with social distancing should that be required and the event will be completely safe and COVID compliant.
