Hampton Court Palace
In the stunning setting of Hampton Court Palace the Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra will perform scores from the mainstream masters of classical music. Conducting the orchestra is Ilyich Rivas, a young Venezuelan-American conductor who made his professional debut at the age of 16.
A fireworks display will provide a spectacular finale to round off this superb evening. The Gates open at 5.30pm so festival-goers can relax with drinks and picnics in the beautiful Palace Gardens before the show.
