Happy September!

September’s Oxford’s Slow Session is on this Sunday, 6th September 2026, from 4pm, upstairs in The Slow and Steady, Abingdon Road (the former White House pub).

The tune of the month for September is The Townie Polka

See link for menu if you would like to come along to lunch at the Slow and Steady on Sunday before the session –
Unfortunately the brunch is no more… (and the Sunday roast advertised on their website is not happening yet) but there are also lots of burgers, pizzas and sides. I will be there from 2.30pm setting up, so feel free to come along.

I think the St Giles’ Fair will be setting up on Sunday so if you normally come through St Giles, expect changes, although I think it will only really affect bus routes. Cyclists and pedestrians can get through ok.

If you want to start planning ahead… some more good tunes coming… And our new Slow Celtic Session in on again at the end of November as well!
