Battle Proms Picnic Concert
Saturday 6th July 2024
A longstanding highlight of our social calendar, The Battle Proms is a quintessentially British open-air picnic concert: the perfect opportunity to celebrate the summer in style, in a stunning setting overlooking the iconic Column of Victory!
Enjoy an afternoon of breath-taking displays, from daring cavalry skill-at arms to live cannon fire and freefall parachute displays courtesy of The Red Devils (the British Army and Parachute Regiments official display team).
The Battle Proms Belles bring vintage glamour and sing-a-long harmonies sure to get your toes tapping as they warm up the audience for the evening’s captivating orchestral programme from the New English Concert Orchestra.
You’ll need your flags ready as the concert’s opening pieces herald the arrival of the legendary Grace Spitfire, performing a meticulously choreographed aerial display in the skies above the crowd.
You’ll be treated to a selection of iconic modern pieces including The Dam Busters March, The Downton Abbey Theme and Gershwin’s Summertime (performed by star soprano Denise Leigh), complementing uplifting classical works you know and love such as the 1812 Overture and the Battle Proms spectacular signature piece, Beethoven’s Battle Symphony, performed as he composed it with 193 live firing Napoleonic cannon providing a thunderous percussion!
Denise Leigh will then lead the crowd in a jubilant flag-waving, sing-along finale with Jerusalem, Rule, Britannia!, Land of Hope and Glory and more, before the perfect British summer evening closes with magnificent musical firework displays!
