The Rumstore at Carnglaze Caverns

Carnglaze Caverns is made up of three man-made caverns that were once part of a slate quarry. The caverns have hosted a number of live music events, including concerts by Embrace and British Sea Power. Your ensemble will be able to perform in the first of these caverns, known as the Rum Store because the Navy stored its supply of rum there during the Second World War. Your choir, band or performing arts group are welcome to perform here from April to November.

Trebah Garden is a beautiful sub-tropical garden near Falmouth. The garden is set in a valley, which slopes down towards its own private beach, from which the Allied assault on Omaha Beach was launched on D-Day.

Supporting you
every step of the way

Creating your
perfect tour

Your quote will be put together by an experienced Tour Adviser who’ll be an expert in music tours and will know the destination really well too. They’ll work with you to create a tour to suit your group’s needs and meet your tour objectives.

Launching your tour

The next step is to get your tour approved and then get your musicians signed up to it. Our ‘Trip Launch Pack’ will help you with this step. This is full of resources (all free to download) designed to make your life easier at this crucial point in the tour planning process.

After
you’ve booked

Once you’ve booked, your dedicated Itinerary Coordinator will start work on the finer details. They’ll make sure your itinerary makes the most of your time and they’ll take on most of the admin tasks for your trip (including making sure your concerts are well promoted).

Support while
you’re away

Throughout your music tour, we’ll be just a phone call away (24/7). Before you go, we’ll send you a final info pack and you’ll be able to access all your tour documents via the free Vamoos app.

After
your tour

When you return from your tour, we’ll ask you to complete a detailed feedback survey, so we can continue to improve the service we offer. And we can start planning your next tour, so you can give your musicians and their families plenty of time to pay for it (and so it’s less stressful for you).
