As the working day ends, let your spirits be lifted as artist Scott King presents ‘Keep the Home Fires Burning’ at the launch of ‘As You Change, So Do I’.
Luton’s rail commuters (and you) will be greeted by a host of musicians and a feast of classic picnic fare.
Featuring musical performances from a one man band, a solo violinist from Sinfonia Verdi, Luton Youth Cantores and the Luton members of Britain’s Got Talent’s Gospel Incognito. You can even join in with this musical welcome and pick up a ‘Welcome home heroes!’ banner!
Bute Street will become the home to clothed tables, surrounded by bunting and balloons, and laden with delicious food. Tuck into sandwiches, sausage rolls, scones and, in true street style, cake.
