Organ Enthusiasts' Day, Diss, Norfolk, 6th Oct 2024
By Kevin McElhone
On Sunday, 6th October, 2024, will be the 39th Fair Organ Enthusiasts'
Day, a day when fair and street organs large and small visit the
Grange Musical Collection and are played together with the instruments
in the permanent collection -- a day to celebrate the Mechanical Music
Museum Trust, founder Robert Finbow, who first held Fair Organ
Enthusiasts' Day back in 1987 at his Mechanical Music Museum, Cotton.

Gates are open at 10:00 a.m. to 17:00 p.m. Admission for this special
event is £10.00 for adults and £2.00 for children 16 years and under,
in aid of Mechanical Music Museum Trust. (I have not been advised of
any price increase since 2023.)
Visiting organs will be displayed outside and there will be Engines in
Steam as well as the indoor instruments including the Wurlitzer Cinema
Organ being played.
I will be there as usual with a stall, for MBSGB and myself, and I look
forward to seeing old and new friends there. Please let me know before
18:00 on Friday 4th October if you want me to bring anything along for
you. Do come and claim a free back-issue of 'The Music Box'
magazine.
