Shrewsbury's most famous hotel, The Lion, is the perfect venue for this years inaugural Shrewsbury Django Fest. We know the beautiful, historical concert hall has the ideal acoustics to host the main performances taking place over the weekend. Even Paganini graced the Adam Ballroom stage in one of his last public concerts many years ago, Stéphane Grappelli stayed at the hotel after his late 1980's Shrewsbury appearance. Other famous guests include The Beatles and Charles Dickens. Good local real ales will be available as well as guitar demos, CD stalls, gigs in the hotel bar, jam sessions going throughout the hotel and other venues in the town and also a gypsy jazz retreat weekend where guitar and violin students can sign up for a dream weekend to learn directly from the best in the world!
