The Salt Works Sessions

The Saltworks Sessions were introduced to the Lion Salt Works Museum by Ian Dutton and Bev Dean, both having passion for live folk music and a love for the atmospheric space at the venue.

The space used is part of the original Marston Saltworks building, which now has ancient monument status. The site has recently had a multi-million pound renovation and has proved to be the perfect venue for music performances. With warm and intimate acoustics paired with a beautiful historical setting, audiences and performers alike have embraced this very special setting.

Thanks to Ian and Bev,  there is now a committed team. The Salt Museum and Macks Music have come on board to ensure the experience for performers and the audience is a memorable one.

The aim of the project is to bring high calibre performers to an unsuspecting setting, and attract an audience that would normally attend much larger venues.

​​

A licensed bar is provided at all events.
