Orrell St James Soul Club, Wigan

[Brookesy 887]

Really sorry but Orrell St James club will not be reopening when the current lockdown ends.

The owners of the club are permanently closing 20 clubs locally and St James is unfortunately one of them.

On behalf of myself, Lisa, Blunny, Tony & Ann we would like to express our thanks to everyone who has supported the venue over the years and those DJs who spun the sounds for us, much appreciated.

No doubt there will be many other casualties of the present situation, let’s hope the venues that survive will attract enough support to see them through the tough times ahead.

Take care everyone and thanks once again for all the support, we’ll see you through the window

That is really sad, it’s walking distance for us. Is a ‘replacement’ being considered?

We’re not looking for another venue at the moment to be honest.
