World Pasty Championships 2022
Celebrate St Piran’s Day with a pasty!
The Eden Project will be celebrating St Piran’s Day with their annual World Pasty Championship, supported by the Cornish Pasty Association. This one’s a fantastic opportunity for a good old Cornish shindig, with pasties galore and live music and entertainment from local bands.
The event is open to both amateur and professional bakers, so why not enter or simply go along to grab a bite of a delicious pasty?
Wille and the Bandits
Rock out at Old Bakery Studios.
A classic blues rock three-piece, Wille and the Bandits are comparable to Cream or Jimi Hendrix, and like these bands they’re pushing at the boundaries of their genre. The band combines three talented and committed musicians who come from very different musical backgrounds. Wille’s exquisite slide guitar playing and powerful vocals are given perfect momentum with Andy’s innovative drumming, while virtuoso Matt, with his six string bass and double bass, adds even extra wow.
Don’t miss these talented musicians and secure your seats here.
Disco Inferno
Dance the night away with disco classics.
For all those who dreamed of going to New York’s Studio 54, Disco Inferno is the spectacular all singing, all dancing celebration of everything D.I.S.C.O. This electrifying show screams glitter balls and good times.
You’ll be thrilled by pitch perfect harmony, high energy, slick choreography and disco classics such as Blame It On The Boogie, Car Wash and It’s Raining Men.
Head down to this event and you’ll get to sing along to your favourites by Earth Wind and Fire, Barry White, Donna Summer and many more!
