Jayne Darling to Perform at the 46th Chesterfield Festival of Remembrance
I’m delighted to be taking part in the 46th Chesterfield & District Festival of Remembrance, which takes place on Thursday 6th November 2025 at the Winding Wheel Theatre, Holywell Street, Chesterfield.
This well-established event is a significant part of Chesterfield’s annual calendar, bringing together the community to honour those who have served — and continue to serve — in the Armed Forces. It’s a respectful and moving evening that reflects on past conflicts while also recognising the dedication of today’s service personnel.
Key details:
📍 Winding Wheel Theatre, Holywell Street, Chesterfield S41 7SA
📅 Thursday 6th November 2025
🕕 Doors open at 6.00pm, show starts at 7.20pm and finishes at 10.00pm
🎟️ Tickets: £6, available directly from the venue
The event will be held in the presence of His Majesty’s Lord Lieutenant, Mrs Elizabeth Fothergill C.B.E., and will feature members and standards from various branches of the Armed Forces and civilian emergency services. It’s also supported by Chesterfield and district Cadet Units.
As a vintage performer specialising in music from the wartime era, I feel privileged to be able to contribute to events like these, helping to keep the music and memory of this important period alive. The performance will be filmed as part of the evening’s proceedings, adding to its significance and reach.
If you’re in the area, I’d love to see you there. And if you’re organising your own remembrance event or vintage celebration and would like to enquire about a performance, feel free to get in touch:
