An Evening with the Quarrymen and Friends
St Peter's Church Hall, Liverpool, L25 5JF
Friday 28th August 2026
The Quarrymen in Concert!!
Tickets - £25.00 each.
From 8pm on Friday, August 28, 2026, John Lennon's Original Quarrymen, and Friends, will 'get back' to where it all began, when they play a special concert in St Peter's Church Hall, Woolton - just as they did on July 6, 1957, on the day that John met Paul and the Lennon-McCartney partnership began!
The current Quarrymen lineup consists of Colin Hanton on drums - who played with John, Paul and George - Rod Davis now on guitar, banjo player in the Quarrymen on the day John met Paul, plus Henry Lowe on keyboards - the son of John Duff Lowe who played piano on the 1958 recording of "In Spite of all the Danger" and David Bedford, Liverpool Beatles' author, on bass.
As well as some great music -- with maybe a chance to play along! -- the Quarrymen will share stories and memories of their illustrious career, with lots of opportunities to ask questions throughout the evening.
The event is seated (general admission) but there will be room to get up and dance too! A limited selection of non-alcoholic refreshments will be available to purchase, but you are welcome to bring your own drinks too (of any variety)! There will also be the chance to purchase exclusive merchandise from the Quarrymen, as well as photo and signing opportunities.
The venue is fully accessible but please do get in touch if you have any access requirements or require a reserved (Blue Badge) parking space.
Event Timings (subject to change)
St Peter's Church Hall will be open to the public for tours from 10.30am to 2.30pm, with free entry. Woolton village offers plenty of options for food (and drink) and we encourage you to check these out before returning to the Church Hall for 7.30pm when the doors will open for ticket-holders.
Tickets are available for purchase online with no additional fees for online bookings. Please note that all ticket sales are final and tickets are non-transferable. Refunds will only be offered in the following circumstances:
