When the WSM STREETFEST hits town on Saturday 19th and Sunday 20th September opposite the Tropicana, there will be plenty of scope to show off your dance moves. Even better, the winners of the dance competition will be performing at the opening of Weston-super-Mare’s Grand Pier in 2010. This exciting prize will bring the winners a huge opportunity to display their talents to a wide audience.
Pier owners Kerry and Michelle Michael have promised a spectacular series of opening events that may last over several weeks. Kerry Michael said: “We are happy to support local talent and showcase it at our opening events. We can certainly give a guarantee that there will be a lot happening on the Grand Pier next summer.”
Britain’s Got Talent 2008 finalist NEMISIS will be performing at the WSM STREETFEST event on both days and there will be the chance to dance alongside them and learn some of their moves.

Angle Ring supplies pipe clamps for Grand Pier
The Angle Ring Company has supplied purpose-made pipe clamps for the repair and refurbishment of the Grand Pier at Weston-Super-Mare.
The pipe clamps, manufactured for use with cast-iron or steel columns of 282-460mm (d), are being used on the cross-leg bracings.
The fabricated Angle Ring products are designed to be more robust and substantial than conventional pipe-clamp products which are available for this purpose.
They have been formed from 20mm mild steel plate, cut to 70 or 75mm widths, and supplied, shaped, drilled and bevelled to contractual requirements.
600 clamps have been supplied to date, with a further 870 on order or in production.
With either two or four clamps required at each clamping point (depending upon the column location), it is anticipated that further clamps will be required to facilitate full completion of repair work, which is designed to provide longevity to the pier, with a target of completion by June 2010.
