Ev-entz is getting ready for another road trip as we take our brilliant percussion trade stand to the Butlins Mineworkers Festival this weekend.

Top quality

As always, we will try and bring as much top quality drums, percussion and accessories with us from top brands such a Majestic, Premier, Pearl, Sabian and Yamaha and many more.

Our team of experts will be there to answer your questions, and we will have everything on hand for bands as they prepare for the up and coming Regional competition test pieces.

Exclusive deals

We will have exclusive trade stand deals available on the weekend, so make sure you come and chat with Adrian and Geraint, as well as Austin who will be working with Hercules Music Stands for the weekend.

If you need us to bring anything in particular this weekend, feel free to give us a call on 01633 250062 or email office@ev-entz.co.uk and we will do our very best to bring it with us.
