IMPORTANT CHRISTMAS DINNER & DANCE UPDATE FOR TICKET HOLDERS
Since the sad news about The Appleyard on Friday, we've been working with Sittingbourne & Milton Regis Golf Club to ensure the Dinner & Dance on 20th December is not cancelled. The Golf Club have asked us to share the update below which has important information for ticket holders...
"Sittingbourne & Milton Regis Golf Club have been in contact with The Appleyard over the weekend and we are awaiting a list from them of customers who purchased tickets and how many tickets were sold to each customer. They cannot share customers contact details though for data protection reasons.
The Appleyard have confirmed 134 tickets were sold and we want to give as many people who previously booked first refusal. However, we can unfortunately only accommodate 120 for a sit down meal with dancing.
If you got a confirmation email when you paid your deposit to the Appleyard please email it (to show proof of previous purchase) to admin@smrgc.co.uk
Please include the following in your email...
* details of who paid for previous tickets
* quantity purchased
* contact email
* telephone number.
We are honouring the price of £46 a ticket. Payment is needed in full at time of booking and is non-refundable. We hope to go back to people within a few days with the menu, pre-order sheet and details for making payment."
Please note any queries should be directed to Sittingbourne & Milton Regis Golf Club

The sad news about the upcoming closure of The Appleyard is a huge loss for both Sittingbourne as a community and for the wider Swale area. Our thoughts are, of course, with everyone who has lost their job as a result and we are sending our love to them all at this very difficult time.
Marylebone Jelly’s story has been interwoven with The Appleyard’s over the years - the original line up of MBJ performed in the lower lounge in 1997 and our first festival headline slot was Party In The Park 2008 (thanks Debbie Triggs!)
Since then we’ve been fortunate enough to perform at the venue countless times.
Weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, charity fundraisers, dinner and dance events and more have all taken place there with us providing the soundtrack.
When we decided to put on the 80s Mixtape shows, we went to Sarah and Mike with the idea and they became our partners - enthusiastically dressing up, joining in and donating to the charities we supported. Their team were nothing but awesome!
We’ve graced the Party In The Park stage 11 times (!) - an event that became a staple in the summer calendar for so many in Sittingbourne thanks to Sarah and Mike’s hard work! Along the way the event meant we got to meet so many people who became our friends. It also meant we could boast that East 17, Toyah, Aswad and The Christians were our support bands, which is pretty cool 🤣
So before the door is closed for the final time we want to say thanks for the wonderful memories - we’ll cherish them always. We’ll miss you.
Marylebone Jelly 😘🥺😔

IMPORTANT APPLEYARD NEWS
By now, many of you will have received emails from The Appleyard with the sad news of their upcoming closure. Given our long standing history with the venue and with Sarah & Mike, we will, of course, be posting about this separately 😢
Obviously, this affects the Christmas Dinner & Dance with Marylebone Jelly on 20th December. For those of you who have booked for this, we are currently having conversations with a view to securing an alternate Sittingbourne venue so the event can go ahead.
Please keep an eye on this page and we’ll provide an update as soon as we can x
