Entrance, set or both?
A flexible format for the way your event flows
In Pontefract, an entrance moves with people from a defined starting point to a clear destination. A performance set stays within an agreed area and gives guests a focused live feature. If your day would benefit from both, share the order and the time between each moment.
The format in Pontefract can be shaped around one headline moment or several connected parts of the day. Explain who the dhol will accompany, where guests will be gathered and what should happen immediately after the performance finishes.

If your Pontefract event uses a stage, ballroom or separate reception room, explain where the players enter and whether they need to cross a guest or service area. A simple route description is often enough.
