Each year down in Surrey, by the grand historic Palace set by the River Thames and its surrounding villages on both sides, Hampton Court Palace Festival hosts a set of musical evenings that cover a few genres but present big names. And we mean big, as these acts usually fill The Royal Festival Hall, The London Palladium and other prestige venues. Here is what we know…

Attendees will arrive at the sumptuous Palace Gardens to enjoy a spot of picnicking in the spectacular surroundings with champagne available to purchase from the festival’s Champagne Partner, Champagne PIAFF.
The festival also offers the perfect opportunity to celebrate special occasions in a prestigious setting, with exclusive dining and corporate entertainment available, ensuring a memorable VIP experience.
