It's been a very busy year at the Axminster Guildhall and hopefully some of you would have taken advantage of some of the great shows/events that have been happening there in 2022. 

Whether you went to the Drag Show, Axminster Eats, Let There B/DC or Forever Queen or are planning to go and see Dom Joly, Omid Djalili, Gary Delaney or the Christmas Eve Disco - then the Guildhall would love to hear from you and ask that you feel free to leave comments on their Facebook, Instagram or Twitter pages.

In the meantime, as we come towards the end of 2022, it seems like the perfect time to reveal what they have planned for 2023.
