Music in the Gardens

Every Summer Sunday in February 5pm to 7:30pm

If you enjoy tapping your feet, dancing on the grass, humming the different tunes against a wonderful backdrop of the setting sun surrounded by exotic plants and mature trees, then these concerts definitely can't be missed. Enjoy your BYO picnic, buy a glass of wine, cup of tea or coffee and food from the Teahouse knowing that you are having a fun summer's evening while contributing to the programs and development of the GBG.

The Music in the Gardens season for 2010 has come to an end and the Friends thank all who attended, all those who volunteered and especially the musicians who entertained us all. You can read below about the line–up for the season just gone and be assured more music and entertainment will be available next year for the summer of 2011. Watch this space.

Music in the Gardens 2010

Another successful Music in the Gardens took place in February 2010 with visitors coming from all around. Mark your diary for next year!

A view from behind the audience on the Teahouse lawn enjoying the Hip Cats at the 2010 music in the gardens.

Gathered on the Teahouse lawn, just inside the 19th Century garden, a large audience enjoyed the Hip Cats.

Some of the audience enjoyed a dance to the Rock-a-billy stylings of the Hip Cats.

Some of the audience found the rock-a-billy stylings of the Hip Cats too much to resist and took to the lawn, by the stage, for a dance.
