Get ready for an evening of comedy and laughter\, as he takes us through the hows\, whys and whats of reading\, writing and enjoying poetry every day. \nWith over 500\,000 followers on social media and a host of sell-out shows across the country\, Brian Bilston is one of the UK’s most popular poets. He has published several bestselling collections of poetry\, including ‘You Took the Last Bus Home’\, ‘Alexa’\, ‘what is there to know about love?’ and ‘Days Like These’. His novel ‘Diary of a Somebody’ was shortlisted for the Costa First Novel Award\, and he has also written collections of poetry for younger readers. \nIn 2025 he released an album of his poetry set to music\, Sounds Made by Humans\, in collaboration with The Catenary Wires. \nDescribed as the ‘Poet Laureate of Twitter’ and ‘part John Cooper-Clarke\, part Frank Sidebottom’\, Brian Bilston is a poet clouded in the pipe smoke of mystery. Very little is known about him other than the fragments of information revealed on social media: his penchant for tank tops\, his enjoyment of Vimto\, his dislike of (and his poems about) Jeremy Clarkson. \nThis is a seated show starting at 7.30pm. The show will be in two parts with a short interval at 8:15pm. \nSocials & Website:\nbrianbilston.com/\nInstagram: @brian_bilston\nFacebook.com/brianbilston\nBluesky: @brianbilston.bsky.social \nHigh quality wines & beers\, spirits & cocktails available from Alan Colwill of The Outside Inn with spirits supplied by Norton Barton Artisan Food Village.\nSerendip Sri Lankan Street Food available – as recommended by Rick Stein! \nAdult: £22.50 / Under 18s: £16  | Doors open 6pm | Performance 7.30pm\nTickets with NO booking fee available from Bude Tourist Information Centre URL:https://www.visitbude.info/event/brian-bilston-how-to-lay-an-egg-with-a-horse-inside/ LOCATION:Parkhouse Centre\, Ergue-Gaberic Way\, Bude\, Cornwall\, EX23 8LD\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Music ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.visitbude.info/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/Brian-Bilston.jpeg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20261129T193000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20261129T220000 DTSTAMP:20260415T201519 CREATED:20251123T135000Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251123T135000Z UID:10033722-1795980600-1795989600@www.visitbude.info SUMMARY:Bude Jazz Club - live music and dancing at the Falcon Hotel DESCRIPTION:Trudgeon’s Trad Jazz Troubadours URL:https://www.visitbude.info/event/bude-jazz-club-live-music-and-dancing-at-the-falcon-hotel/ LOCATION:Falcon Hotel\, Breakwater Road\, Bude\, Cornwall\, EX23 8SD\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Music END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20261209T080000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20261209T170000 DTSTAMP:20260415T201519 CREATED:20251021T114915Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251021T114915Z UID:10031664-1796803200-1796835600@www.visitbude.info SUMMARY:Bude Jazz Club - Dave Vaughan Swingtet DESCRIPTION:Bude Jazz Club presents Dave Vaughan Swingtet at the Falcon Hotel \nVisitors most welcome \nChristmas event on Wednesday 09 December 2026 URL:https://www.visitbude.info/event/bude-jazz-club-dave-vaughan-swingtet/ LOCATION:Falcon Hotel\, Breakwater Road\, Bude\, Cornwall\, EX23 8SD\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Music END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20261225T104500 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20261225T120000 DTSTAMP:20260415T201519 CREATED:20231205T170250Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250924T112534Z UID:10000004-1798195500-1798200000@www.visitbude.info SUMMARY:Christmas Day Swim DESCRIPTION:On Christmas morning\, hundreds of intrepid people from across Cornwall and beyond will go for a refreshing dip in the sea at Crooklets Beach. \nBude SLSC Committee advise that the club is not involved in the organisation of any swimming that may take place at Crooklets Beach on Christmas Day. This is due to circumstances out of their control and is in the best interests of the club. \nWe understand that due to the popularity of our previously held Christmas Day Swim\, it is possible that members of the public may wish to gather and possibly enter the water. \nTherefore\, in the interest of public safety\, we will have a volunteer patrol from 1100hrs for a short time.\nBude SLSC Committee \n(Image by The Big Ladder Photographer) URL:https://www.visitbude.info/event/christmas-day-swim/2026-12-25/ LOCATION:Crooklets Beach\, Bude\, Cornwall\, EX23 8NE\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Christmas ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://www.visitbude.info/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/CDP-Bude-Christmas-Swim-Picture-Nomination-1.png END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
