About Us<\/h1>\n

This is an independent page set up to showcase the events Wigan has to offer – that’s it. We are self-funded and self-supporting, and are not political, or affiliated with anyone.<\/p>\n

We aim to show a variety, from gigs, to family events and more – and in the last few years we’ve promoted many 1000s of events on this site and gained a big local following!<\/p>\n

Please note: these events are not managed by us,\u00a0\u00a0we just promote them, and so we’re not responsible for any changes or cancellations etc. Please always contact the event organiser if you’re not sure.<\/p>\n

Please get in touch<\/a> if you are holding an event and would like us to promote it to our followers. It’s free!<\/p>\n

If you’d like to keep up to date with what’s going on, then we also have a Twitter profile twitter.com\/WiganEvents<\/a> and a Facebook page facebook.com\/wiganeventsguide<\/a><\/p>\n

This website is run by the people at digital finch – we’re a local Wigan Video Production<\/a> company providing video and design services for the North West.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
