About Me
Things To Do Guernsey is the brainchild of local concert and event promoter Karen Solway.
TTDGSY was founded in 2008 when Karen returned to Guernsey after living in the United States for 5 years.
Determined to get back into island life Karen decided what Guernsey really needed was a fun new way of meeting people. TTDGSY organises original socialising and networking events designed to enrich your social and cultural calendar while enabling you to meet other professionals in a friendly environment.
TTDGSY also organises all manner of Corporate Events and ticketed events .

New Event Centre
Guernsey has a distinct lack of large event venues. There are many events that could be coming to the island that currently don't. This is something that I want to address.
To have a new event centre and team that can host and organise the best events, to bring unique events to island, to boost the islands economy, to help build the community.
If you find it difficult to find a venue for your events, whatever your event is, especially for gatherings 400 to 2000 people I would love to hear from you.
The business plan is underway, all we need are investors!!

Defending the Caveman
Katherine Jenkins was here to kick off Guernsey’s 65th Liberation Anniversary Celebrations in a concert at Beau Sejour,
Miss Jenkins, was accompanied by the full 32-piece National Symphony Orchestra (NSO), sang a combination of classic and contemporary songs from her repertoire and the NSO also performed a number of pieces of their own.
Defending the Caveman
Jools Holland and his Rhythm & Blues Orchestra
Defending the Caveman
Defending the Caveman is a hysterically funny Broadway show that looks at men, women and why the battle of the sexes is still going strong. Hilarious insights on contemporary feminism and masculine sensitivity. Defending the Caveman mines the common themes in relationships that go straight to the funny bone.
Jools Holland and his Rhythm & Blues Orchestra
Jools Holland and his Rhythm & Blues Orchestra
Jools Holland and his Rhythm & Blues Orchestra
Jools and his orchestra were not alone when they took to the stage – Ruby Turner and Louise Marshall will be guest vocalists for the two nights along with special guest Marc Almond of Soft Cell.
Jools was also joined in Guernsey by his former Squeeze colleague Gilson Lavis who, in 1987, became a founding member of The Jools Holland Blues Band. That band has grown and metamorphosed into the 20-piece Rhythm & Blues Orchestra
Snooker Legends
Snooker Legends
Jools Holland and his Rhythm & Blues Orchestra
Legends such as former World Champions Dennis Taylor, John Parrott, Cliff Thorburn and UK Champion John Virgo, Jimmy White, the “Whirlwind”!.
John Virgo called on members of the audience to perform some trick shots, our very own Sir Geoffrey Rowland making a pot he will never forget.
We had an unforgettable night of nostalgia, fun and snooker, snooker legends... the legends were back on the baize.
