Parties in the Park this August!

Live music brings summer evenings to life this August, with Tatton Park’s outdoor picnic concert series.  On Saturday 2nd and Sunday 3rd August Tatton hosts concerts with two very different but equally enjoyable themes.

The Hallé Orchestra celebrate the finale of their 150th anniversary season with the return of the annual Hallé Fireworks & Light Spectacular on Saturday 2nd August.

This year’s programme celebrates Cheshire’s Year of Gardens ’08, and features music appropriate to the occasion including Tchaikovsky’s Waltz of the Flowers from The Nutcracker, Grainger’s Country Gardens, J. Strauss’ Roses from the South and The Love of Three Oranges by Prokofiev. The delightful programme also features works by Dvorak, Berlioz, Wagner and Grieg.  

The traditional firework display at the end of the concert is synchronised this year to Holst‘s most popular Planet suite �" Mars, Saturn and Jupiter �" and provides a fitting spectacular finish to a great evening’s entertainment.  

Nobody puts Tatton in the corner on Sunday 3rd August with the Party! at Tatton Park on Sunday 3rd. Showcasing over five hours of great music, with The Music of Dirty Dancing and hits from the smash hit ABBA tribute band Björn Again.

This is the perfect opportunity to don dancing shoes so round up your friends and enjoy one of the best parties of the summer.  Party! At Tatton Park is presented in association with Francis House Children’s Hospice.  

Why not pre-order a picnic to start off your fun? Picnics are being provided by the world renowned delicatessen, Carluccio’s.  They can be pre-ordered on purchase of tickets and collected on arrival at Tatton. The concerts are again supported by Jacques Cider with Fruit, whose complimentary drink was very popular with 2007’s concert goers.

Having long established itself as one of the leading venues for outdoor summer events, Tatton’s concerts draw a fantastic crowd and attract new audiences each year, as well as its loyal fan-base.  Its stunning lakeside setting offers a unique backdrop for an evening’s entertainment.
