Howay The Lasses musical collective at Gibside

Celebrate International Women's Day with North East band Howay The Lasses in the historic surroundings of Gibside Chapel.

  • Booking essential

Experience the acoustics of Gibside Chapel with Howay The Lasses, as they celebrate the lives of notable women from the North East. Weaving together a tapestry of traditional sounds and musical landscapes, each musician brings their unique style to the band, to elevate the accomplishments of these women.

Be moved by the story of Gibside’s famous resident, Mary Eleanor Bowes, live in a venue that she would have known.
