Saturday Night Live comes to Oldham

Envy

ENVY, on Waterloo Street, Oldham, is putting on the UK's best tribute acts each and every Saturday night.

These quality acts from the likes of Robbie Williams to Ed Sheeran, Taylor Swift to Ellie Goulding plus many more will be performing live on a brand new stage set-up built especially for these shows.

Manager Terry Bruce said, "Customers were constantly asking if we could bring back stuff like they did when it was Chicago Rock café, so this is exactly what we have done, even down to the same pricing structure.

"We have trawled through the archives in Envy and dug out all the old Chicago's stuff, including pricing tariffs and replicated them from 15 years ago but with a modern twist on the entertainment.

"We have made this session the most cost-effective event in the Greater Manchester area for our Envy customer with free entry and 50 per cent off all drinks before 11pm.

"To be fair, I think we are selling ourselves short with the pricing we have put in place to ensure we offer a true value for money night out."

Terry added: "With the new Parliament Square complex now up and running we agreed with the owners of the nightclub that this would make the perfect time to launch a regular early evening entertainment offer.

"The management and executives came to see how the massive change made to the Parliament Square area is and that a quality offering was required and agreed the investment of over £20,000 into this new venture.

"We felt that with the new entertainment complex now open in the Old Town Hall and with the restaurants in full swing we needed to bridge the gap between an early evening meal and the disco dancing after 11 o'clock and felt this was a great way to entertain customers.

"Doors open at 9pm, we put on a live tribute act show from around 9.30pm and then a second show from around 10.45pm. In between we have the local area's most popular DJs.

"Even though we offer free admission so customers can come along and enjoy themselves without booking in advance, customers are being given the opportunity to pre-book booths of their choice free of charge.

"Our exclusive Crystal Booths will also be available for parties of up to 8 people per booth, again free of charge on a first come, first serve basis. There will also be an offering of a small snack selection including crisps, popcorn and nachos."

Saturday Night Live launches on Saturday, September 2 with an Ed Sheeran special, as the top Ed tribute act in the country takes to the Envy stage around 9.30pm to perform all his best hits including Thinking Out Loud, Shape of You and Galway Girl.

Following Ed Sheeran will be Michael Buble on Saturday, September 9, Lady Gaga on the 16th, Robbie Williams on the 23rd and capped off with Madonna on the 30th.
