Historic Royal Palaces and PWR Events are delighted to announce that legendary Van Morrison will return to Hampton Court Palace Festival on 16th June.
Van Morrison is considered one of the greatest singer-songwriters of our age. Winner of six Grammy Awards, and a BRIT Award for his outstanding contribution to music, he has also been inducted into both the Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Fame and Songwriters Hall of Fame.
The singer and composer of such classic hits as Brown Eyed Girl, Bright Side of The Road, Have I Told You Lately That I Love You and many more, makes a welcome return to the Festival where he last played in 2012, creating the perfect summer sound.
The other artists confirmed to perform at the Festival include: George Benson, The Beach Boys, Dionne Warwick, Jamie Cullum, Rick Astley & Jason Donovan, Jools Holland as well as two classical evenings with the Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra - the Classical Gala & Fireworks and Opera on a Midsummer Night who will all perform in Henry VIII’s open air courtyard.
Hampton Court Palace Festival is renowned for creating a truly unforgettable experience. Artists perform in the historic main courtyard of the magnificent Tudor Palace providing an intimate atmosphere for an audience of 3,000. VIP Packages are available in the State Apartments and Festival-goers can also arrive early (doors open at 5.30pm) to enjoy picnics on the Palace Garden lawn or underneath a luxury waterside gazebo before the show.
