“Part of the mission of the MET is to bring culture, events and arts experiences to communities who may not traditionally access them. “So last year we had an Abba tribute act on. People told us they wanted their kids to understand they were an actual band and not just linked to a film. A Saturday night and this place was full and everyone was having a great time dancing to Abba!”Charles Quick inside the MET tent Pic: Blog Preston
“Once people come inside the tent they are really taken aback and don’t want to leave. We get great sound in here, the proper floor comes out and we have this lovely artwork all the way around.”See what’s on in and around Preston
