BBC Proms - 18 July-13 Sept 2008 - The World's Greatest Classical Music Festival

BBC Proms in the Park / Join the Party

The Last Night magic, live in the open air!



Each of the four BBC Proms in the Park events, sponsored by National Savings and Investments, is centred around a live concert with high-profile artists and presenters, culminating in a live Big Screen link-up to the Royal Albert Hall. So gather together your friends, pack a picnic and get ready for a fabulous night out!

BELFAST - GLASGOW - LONDON - SWANSEA

If there isn't a Proms in the Park event near to you, you can join the party at one of the BBC Big Screens around the country: Birmingham (Chamberlain Square), Bradford (Centenary Square), Derby (Market Place), Hull (Queen Victoria Square), Leeds (Millennium Square), Liverpool (Clayton Square), Manchester (Exchange Square), Rotherham (All Saints Square), Swindon (Wharf Green) and other new screens currently being commissioned across the UK.

Note that all BBC Proms in the Park events take place outdoors and tickets are unreserved. The use of chairs is discouraged since it obstructs the view of others, but if you find it necessary because of limited mobility, please be considerate to your neighbours. In the interests of safety, please do not bring glass items, barbeques or flaming torches.
