For our third and final takeover night of 2026 we complete our poetry student exchange visit with the Mackemtastic Poetical Outlaws night from Sunderland coming to Robin Hood country on Friday 7th August at Fisher Gate Point 7-11pm.

There will be sweet music and all manner of poetry genius in the form of Gaeran Southern, Pip McDonald, Dan Husband, Brogan Brannan, Steve Wood and Kev Robson as well as the Hatman himself. Further individual profiles to follow but I guarantee a top night of fun and games or your money back.
