Bargate Square in flux as its setting changes, with Christmas light switch-on festivities

Listening to the artists playing in Southampton this week demonstrates how diverse and rich our cultural offering is. I’d like to highlight Turner Sims, who consistently attract some of world music’s biggest stars to this city – this week featuring South African jazz legend Nduduzo Makhathini and Malian super group Habib Koité & Bamada. The Art House are also adept at picking some real treats, this week including Tuppenny Bunters with a unique vintage sound that went down a storm at Edinburgh Fringe. Focus are back, the Welsh National Opera is in town, the music of Hans Zimmer and John Williams will fill the Central Hall, and 100s more. Enjoy!
