🚨 LINE-UP UPDATE 🚨

We’ve got some unfortunate news to share… due to an accident, John Showman & Chris Coole are no longer able to join us at Crossover this year.

John recently suffered a severe fall resulting in significant injuries, and while he is thankfully on the road to recovery, he won’t be able to travel in May. We’re sending him all our very best wishes for a full and speedy recovery ❤️

We know many of you were looking forward to seeing them, and we’re truly gutted too, but we’re incredibly grateful to have found a brilliant duo to step in…

✨ Please welcome Sam Kelly & Jamie Francis! ✨
They’ll be taking over the Sunday evening 8:40pm slot, and trust us you are in for something really special. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vAdH7vgKnbE&list=RDvAdH7vgKnbE&start_radio=1

🥳 Fancy Dress Friday! 🥳

🚨 Don’t forget! 🚨

One week on Friday we want to see you in your fancy dress outfits! Theme is 80s/90s/Country.

RIP ROARING SUCCESS are taking over the last evening slot at Crossover on Friday 1 May and this one’s going to be a proper party.

Featuring 2 members of Jaywalkers and 1 member of Baker’s Fabulous Boys, they’ll be serving up their usual fantastic mix of bluegrass and Americana… with a twist. Think a wild mash‑up of 80s & 90s pop bangers plus some country favourites; a full‑on disco hoedown (Discoedown?!) on the dancefloor.

The band will judge the best dressed and the winner gets a £20

Are your glowsticks ready!? ✨ #
