🎤 WIN THE STAGE @ The Wheatsheaf

📍 Leighton Buzzard


Live Audience-Voted Talent Competition

Every Wednesday, the stage is yours.

Win The Stage is a live talent night where musicians, singers, comedians, spoken word artists, and performers of all kinds take the spotlight — and the audience decides the winner.


🎭 How It Works
  • 10-minute performance slots
  • Mixed talent: music, comedy, spoken word & more
  • Audience voting determines the winner
  • Winner* receives a 45 minute - £100 headline slot at the venue
  • The venue may offer extended bookings on the night
  • *If performing as a duo or band, the prize will be shared equally between the members of the group.
  • 🎟 Entry Options (FREE)

You can attend as:

🎤 Performer
Limited slots available — early booking strongly recommended.

👏 Supporter
Come along, watch the performances, vote, and support local talent.


📌 Important Info
  • Perform as many times as you like during the month
  • You can only win once per month
  • No audience = no winner
  • Arrive early if you’re planning to walk in

This night only works because of the crowd.

Let’s build something big for Leighton Buzzard.


*The competition runs over 4 weeks, with up to 8 performers each week.

Each weekly winner will receive a 30-minute headline set, and all weekly winners will return to perform on the same night at the end of the 4-week run for the Grand Final - date to be announced.

At the final, after all winners perform their 30-minute sets, the act with the highest overall points will be crowned the overall winner and awarded a 45-minute headline slot worth £100 at The Wheatsheaf.

If performing as a duo or band, the prize will be shared equally between the members.
