Published 29th Jul 2016

The bar the Warrington band Viola Beach called their "second home" is being re-opened today in their memory

It's 6 months since the group died in a tragic car crash in Sweden.

The Lounge bar was the focal point for tributes after the accident and three of the boys - Kris Leonard, Tom Lowe and Jack Dakin used to work there while trying to crack the music industry.

Now friends and family including Kris's mum Lisa have pulled together to re-open the bar which has become synonymous with the band and their fans.
