Proms in the Park returns to Wigan borough

Feel-good favourites will bring two parks alive with the sound of music.

Proms in the Park will be held at Mesnes Park on Saturday, September 2 and Pennington Hall Park on Saturday, September 9.

Tyldesley Brass Band will provide pomp and ceremony with traditional singalong anthems, such as Land of Hope and Glory and Jerusalem, with families invited to take picnics, wave flags and enjoy the show.

Coun Chris Ready said: “We can’t wait for Proms in the Park to return this year and for our communities to come together to celebrate the sights and sounds of the park.

“We’re so lucky to have such wonderful green spaces to play host to events like this and what better way to spend a Saturday evening than enjoying talented musicians while snacking on your favourite picnic treats.”

Tickets are priced from £9.50 for children and £12.50 for adults, with a VIP experience of prosecco and cream tea in a private gazebo also available.

Book via Eventbrite’s website.
