Henley's favourite feel‑good fundraiser is back, and Round Two of The Mayor's Mission is shaping up to be one of the town's most vibrant community parties of the year in support of three vital local charities: Nomad Henley, The Chiltern Centre, and Lowland Rescue. This second round promises a full day of music, food, and community spirit, spread across two floors and curated to suit every kind of partygoer.
Daytime Vibes: 4–8pm (Downstairs)
The afternoon session sets the tone with upbeat, feel‑good energy courtesy of Deano Jones (Gold Dust Radio) and John Maslin. Designed for those who love a daytime dance but still want to be home for tea and toast, this early party offers a relaxed, fun atmosphere.
Evening Session: 7pm–12am (Upstairs)
As the sun sets, the tempo rises. The upstairs floor transforms into a soulful, eclectic dance space headlined by the legendary Norman Jay MBE, joined by Arveene Juthan, and Alex Darby & Mat Carter from Vaultage Events. Expect rich grooves, deep rhythms, and a soundtrack crafted to keep Henley moving.
A Special Set from Norman Jay MBE
To ensure everyone gets their moment on the dancefloor, Norman Jay MBE will play a prime set from around 8pm to 10pm. The event will feature a club‑level sound system, bringing a professional, immersive audio experience to the heart of Henley.
Pre‑Event Brunch at FLYTE Bar
Kick off the day in style with a bottomless brunch at FLYTE Bar. Guests can choose their preferred time slot, with brunch priced at £45. It's the perfect warm‑up before the music begins → BOOK HERE
