In honour of the coronation, Monday, 8 May has been declared a bank holiday and STACK Seaburn plans to keep the party going with another packed programme, starting at 11.30am with Sunderland singer and guitarist Dave Ridley.

At 2pm one of the North East’s finest musical exports, the Emerald Thieves, will take to the stage for a two-hour set of everything from rock, pop, country, soul – not to mention a little Irish folk – performed on an array of instruments, from violin, bass and drums, to piano, mandolin and ukulele.

Following that and rounding off the coronation schedule will be the ever-popular Louise Crosby Duo from 5pm.

Along with live music and DJ sets visitors can enjoy the city’s best independent street food, featuring international cuisines from Mexican tacos and Greek gyros to Italian pizzas, Korean loaded fries and Indian thali trays.

Neill Winch, CEO of Danieli Group which owns STACK Seaburn, said: “It is shaping up to be a fantastic three days of fun, music and food and the perfect way to mark one of the biggest royal events in a lifetime.”
