Money For Nothing: A Tribute to Dire Straits – Cancelled

Dear Customer,

Cancellation Notification

Unfortunately, with the ongoing global situation, and the increasingly unlikelihood of events being able to go ahead in the short term, we have had no alternative than to cancel the performances of Money For Nothing: A Tribute to Dire Straits, originally scheduled to take place from Thursday 15th October 2020.

If you purchased your tickets by card online or via telephone, then we will process this refund directly onto the card you used for the original purchase. Refunds will take up to 7 working days to appear in your account.

If you paid at the theatre in person via cash or card, our box office staff will contact you to arrange a suitable refund. Unfortunately, as we are working remotely, we cannot process cash refunds and can only offer, for original cash customers, a refund by cheque, bank transfer or direct refund onto a credit or debit card.

If you have any queries, please contact us, preferably by e-mail, on sales@paviliontheatre.co.uk (including your booking surname and postcode) or call our Box Office. Our staff are now working remotely to protect their own health and that of colleagues and customers therefore the theatre is not open to the public, but you can contact them on 0141 332 1846 (selecting option 1, 2 or 3), with opening hours of 10am till 3pm, Monday to Thursday.

We apologise for any upset or disappointment this will cause. We wish you well in these strange times, but we are hopeful that things will get back to normal soon and look forward to welcoming you back to the theatre soon.

Yours sincerely,

20th Anniversary Tour 2020

“Undoubtedly the BEST Dire Straits Tribute Band in Europe”

‘Money for Nothing’ was formed in 2000 as a tribute to one of the world’s premier rock bands – Dire Straits. The abundant energy and the excellence and musicality of their performance makes Money for Nothing a “must see” for any rock enthusiast or Dire Straits fan.
Fronting the band is the brilliant guitarist and Mark Knopfler sound-alike Aled Williams. Behind him the line-up features top-class and experienced musicians that make this band a worthy tribute to Dire Straits. Aled and the entire band have studied Dire Straits in great depth to re-create their tribute to be as close as possible to the real thing. Not only ‘can the boy play’ but his voice is also what makes Money for Nothing so unique. You will also see an array of guitars like Mark would play. 2020 is their 20th Anniversary and set to be the biggest and best yet!
