- - in association with - - A festival of progressive rock music to be staged at the fantastic, 1,000 capacity, Assembly in Leamington Spa, Warwickshire, England 

2 Days – 10 Bands

Saturday 8th/Sunday 9th May 2010

3.00-11.00pm

Weekend tickets £40 (£35 to CRS members)

Day tickets £22.50

Chris Alexander used to be the bookings manager of the historic Astoria Theatre in central London. In 2003/4 he organised Progeny 1&2 which featured, among others, In Cahoots, Pallas, IQ, The Enid, Pendragon, Jan Akkerman, Amon Duul, Man, Jadis, Audience, Fish & Carl Palmer.

Following the sad demise of that great venue, Chris has moved on to the newly refurbished and beautifully equipped Assembly and has teamed up with the CRS http://www.classicrocksociety.co.uk/ - www.classicrocksociety.co.uk to bring this great festival back to life.

Keep your eyes peeled as band announcements, ticket purchase details, hotel information and a host of other stuff will be posted regularly from now on.

We are proud and excited to be able to offer this opportunity for the worldwide prog community to come together and enjoy a weekend of top quality progressive music in all its guises (not to mention partying!)  

Cheers for now

Tommo.
