The Basingstoke Variety Show 2011 was held at The Anvil held to raise money for the Mayor's Charity Appeal on behalf of Samaritans (Basingstoke), RadCan (which supports Basingstoke & North Hampshire Hospital to provide radiation therapy) and the Basingstoke & District Disability Forum.

Produced by Ian Aherne and hosted by Kestrel FM Breakfast Show presenter Pete Denton, the Basingstoke Variety Show 2011 offered a tremendous array of talent from the very young Cubs of the Basingstoke Wolverines cheerleaders to the Basingstoke Male Voice Choir, formed in 1964.
