Gone To Gowings ! Birdland version 3 .
The new Birdland (Version 3) opened on Saturday 4th July 2009.
The new address is: Birdland Records 909 / 45 Market Street (Gowings Building) just after the State Theatre. Take the lift to the 9th floor and turn left.
New Hours:
We will be open on Thursday, Friday and Saturday each week. The hours are - Thurs 10-6, Fri 10-5.30, Sat 9-4.30
On the other days we'll be concentrating on the Website and Mail Order service, however orders can be collected in person between 12-2 any day BUT you must email/phone in advance to let us know you're coming in so we can confirm your order is ready and to ensure that someone is here. Orders can be placed on the site and collected at the store rather than posted if you'd prefer.
see you soon... the crew
We've now got sound and vision on the site!
Check out some of the great clips we've added.
