REE EVENTS ALL MONTH // JOIN IN JAN // F
It’s cold, it’s dark, and January is tempting you to hibernate, but we’re here to bring a bit of brightness back. With New Year's resolutions underway and Christmas bills arriving, we know it is not always easy to get out and enjoy yourself. That is why, all month long, Grow is opening its doors for free and offering a full programme of events to lift you out of the winter slump.
With our cosy plant-filled corners, heated and covered canlside spots, DJs, live music and plenty of soft and alcohol-free choices for anyone taking on Dry Jan. You can enjoy the party in your own way without worrying about the cost whilst also supporting us through the toughest month for hospitality. So this January, step out, get social and join in this Jan.
January is the perfect moment to dive into the Canalside Snug Series, with three standout events kicking off the year: Jazz Jam on 8 January, Not The Usual Jam on 11 January, and a Canalside Sessions special on 18 January, all featuring special guest musicians to be announced. With our indoor space transforming into a warmer, more welcoming Snug, it is an ideal time to Join in January and experience Grow’s new winter energy.
