"On Saturday, we will be giving away 125 drinks and we will have music from the past 40 years from 2pm, in the evening we have Legends of Tap, Jonny G, Paks and Syss returning to the pub.

"There will be a Motown singer on Sunday, throughout the weekend there really is something for everyone.

"It feels amazing to be part of this celebration and I feel very proud, I am Luton born and bred.

"The pub is one of the last few in the town that has not been taken over by a larger chain which I think is great, it is still run by Luton people, it is not my pub, it is the people of Luton's pub.
