September News
September 1st, 2007 CheffyThe Maynard are not only earning acclaim for their fine food and dining ambiance but are proving to be something of a master of the special event too. They have a couple of forthcoming events, which will add a very different dimension to the dining experience.
For the first event, they have joined forces with Sheffield based Freya Bridal to run a special dining event that will help to raise funds for the charity Breakthrough Breast Cancer. The ‘Wedding Dress Ball’ on 26th October will give brides the chance to wear their special dress again and should make for an evening of wedding glamour, with up to 100 ‘brides’ in the room at the same time. Tickets for the ball are £45 and include a three course meal.
Information and tickets
A month later, on Saturday 24th November, The Maynard will be hosting a corporate hypnotism evening in association with leading hypnotist and ‘mentalist’ Anthony Jacquin. Local companies from South Yorkshire and Derbyshire are encouraged to go along and keep an open mind for an evening of fun and mischief! Anthony’s skills include ESP, mind reading, Psychokinesis, memory feats and hypnosis. Tickets cost £40 and include a three course meal.
