Battle Proms

Pack up a picnic, chill the fizz and prepare for a concert experience like no other!

Join us in the leafy Queen Elizabeth Oak Field in Historic Hatfield Park for the Battle Proms concert, a summer spectacular with music, fireworks, spitfire, parachutes, cannons and cavalry!

Performed by the New English Concert Orchestra, the musical programme will feature themes from film, TV and musicals alongside much-loved classical favourites. You’ll also be treated to vintage vocals from the Battle Prom Belles, a meticulously choreographed aerial display by the iconic Grace Spitfire, and breath taking displays by the Red Devils Parachute Team, The Worcestershire Cavalry and over 200 live firing cannons.

This unforgettable experience culminates in a jubilant flag-waving sing-along finale with Jerusalem, Rule Brittania, Land of Hope and Glory and more under a sky of dazzling fireworks.

You are welcome to bring picnic chairs, blankets and hampers/cool boxes.
