Following his successful appearance at the charity concert A Million Memories in May, Marc returned to Pagham to give local audiences another chance to enjoy his fantastic tribute to one of Britain's biggest music stars.

But this wasn't just another concert. It was a particularly special occasion, marking Marc's farewell to his Robbie Williams tribute act as he prepares to take a break from the role after the New Year.

Event organiser Zoe Pniewski, owner of My Special Event, was determined to give Marc the send-off he deserved.

And what a send-off it was!

Guests arrived to find Pagham Village Hall transformed with glamorous decorations, beautifully styled table centrepieces and carefully considered finishing touches, creating a sparkling atmosphere worthy of a showbiz celebration.

The evening offered much more than just live music, with guests enjoying freshly prepared pizzas from the visiting pizza van, alongside cocktails, mocktails and refreshments.

There was plenty of opportunity to socialise, enjoy the surroundings and soak up the atmosphere before the main attraction took to the stage.

And when Robbie arrived – well, the room certainly came alive!

Marc Dillon delivered an energetic performance packed with Robbie Williams' biggest hits, audience interaction and plenty of opportunities for guests to sing, dance and enjoy the music.

From the well-known ballads to the upbeat party favourites, the audience was treated to a fantastic evening of entertainment.

For Zoe, the event was particularly meaningful.

Having first welcomed Marc during the May charity concert, she was delighted to bring him back to Pagham and give local audiences one more opportunity to experience his Robbie Williams tribute before his planned break.

Zoe said: "We wanted to make this evening really special for Marc. Knowing that he would be taking a break from his Robbie Williams tribute after the New Year, we felt it was important to give him the send-off he deserved.

"We put a lot of thought into the room styling, decorations and all those little details that make an event special. We wanted our guests to have a proper night out, with great food, lovely drinks, fantastic company and, of course, brilliant live music.

"Marc certainly didn't disappoint, and we're so pleased with how the evening went. It was wonderful to see everyone enjoying themselves and supporting live music locally."

My Special Event, established in 2016, continues to bring a variety of entertainment, concerts and community events to Pagham Village Hall, with a particular focus on supporting live music and creating memorable experiences for local audiences.

The October concert was another example of Zoe's ambition to put on professionally organised entertainment without local residents having to travel further afield for a great night out.

Zoe would like to thank her team involved in set-up and clear down:

  • Her mum Yvonne

  • Emma

  • Julie

  • Sharon

  • Katrina

  • Her husband Jan
