Hollie McNish & Friends (Gig for a Gig Fundraiser)

  • The Old Market 11a Upper Market Street Hove, England, BN3 1AS United Kingdom (map)

LIMITED AVAILABILITY

For one night only, join TOM favourite Hollie McNish and handpicked special guests for an evening of superb spoken word, all surrounded by 360º of beautiful visuals AND raising funds as part of our Gig for a Gig initiative.

Taking place in TOM’s ‘Box’ format, this exclusive event invites audiences to pull up a beanbag or chair and become immersed in the words of some of the best artists on the scene today.

She needs no introduction… but here’s one anyway: Hollie McNish is a poet and author based between Glasgow and Cambridge. She was the first poet to record at Abbey Road Studios, London and won the Ted Hughes Award for New Work in Poetry for her poetic parenting memoir – Nobody Told Me - of which The Scotsman stated ‘The World Needs this Book’. She has published five further collections of poetry – Papers, Cherry Pie, Plum, and Slug and Lobster, both Sunday Times bestsellers. Her next book is out in October 2025. She loves writing.

Special guests TBA.
