Mighty Boof Promotions / Events The Mighty Boof Promotions. Whitehaven based Music promoters and event organisers. This event was another 1000 capacity sell out. Without you, we are nothing.

We (The Mighty Boof) were born out of frustration of the lack of Live music in the area. Our dream was to not only get the Local Live music scene back on track, and give talented locals a chance to perform on big stages but to get to the point where the big players in the music industry considered our area to be part of the national touring band circuit. From the Boofs birth we started out sourcin

g talent from out of the area and mixing it with our home grown acts creating a night or day out that West Cumbria hadn’t seen in years. The success of these events proved that the demand was there and so we have been doing these sorts of gigs ever since, always making sure that we give local musicians the best platform possible. We have worked tirelessly to ensure that our area is considered by the bigger acts and are very proud to now be promoting national touring bands all across Cumbria. As well as the above we have hosted stages at Kendal Calling and the Whitehaven festival. As well as working very closely with the Whitehaven Civic Hall on all the shows they have produced there. In 2009 we ran CockRock’s dance tent and continue to do so along with booking all the top acts who play across the festival. Also in 2010 we agreed to run Beckfest which proved to be a massive success and a sold out event. In 2011 we have built our own mini festival Mighty boof At the Playground 2 day event from scratch and put together a line up that gives our locals a chance to play the same stage as some major acts. To cap it all in 2011 Gerard from the Whitehaven festival has asked us to host the 2000 capacity arena from now on on the Sunday of the festival as well as the other two stages we host. We really do feel like we have now achieved what we set out to do and are now keen to see how far we can go; Who knows what the future holds. So after so many gigs and festivals, and all dayers we have lost count gigs we thank you for your support over the last few years. This page was created for gigs 2011 onwards.
