Party

Bolton itself is an excellent setting for a medieval banquet - what with the authentic rooms, candlelight, roaring fire (and roaring draughts!), plenty of drink and many many friends - it was all turned into a magical experience by the music and dancing of The Grinnigogs - you really turned the evening into something to remember. I cannot tell you how many compliments I have received about you and your music, and the atmosphere you created..... and why we have not come across you before!

Corporate Event

The fabulous performance by the Grinnigogs really helped set the mood for our medieval themed corporate event. Our guests were highly entertained with an array of medieval melodies and their outfits were impressive too! Their flexible approach was wonderful and I would highly recommend the Grinngogs to anyone looking to host a medieval party!

I have been meaning to drop you a line to say a really big thank you for being so great on Saturday. Everyone is still talking about how lovely the music was and how people in the tea room of all ages were engrossed in the stories. It worked so well in that space and really conjured up the atmosphere so well. The Abbey having been closed for several years after post fire restoration, this event I think gave people a real boost and brought the place to life

The Grinnigogs are unbelievable! It is one of the best nights entertainment I have experienced for such a long time. The story telling lady was amazing, the musicians were fantastic within the beautiful setting of the Minster, the jesters and stilt walkers were spellbinding. It was a wonderful; evening that I will never forget. Thank you to all the Grinnigogs, jesters and stilt-walkers that made it happen.
