This charming August bank holiday festival is back for a fourth time in 2026, transforming Battersea Park into a serene space to take in some majestic orchestral renditions of your favourite tunes.
This year’s line-up sees Pop Symphonic take the stage with the Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra for a night of ultimate party classics, reimagined live with the likes of ABBA, Spice Girls, Bruno Mars and more. Support comes from Guilty Pleasures club night, spinning some of your fave tracks. There’s also a ‘Movies and Musicals’ night with the Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra celebrating the finest sounds from cinema and musical theatre with classic tracks from Hamilton, Jesus Christ Superstar, The Greatest Showman, Studio Ghibli, Gladiator and more, all finishing in a spectacular fireworks finale. Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Orchestra will make an appearance, as will The Amy Winehouse Band celebrating 20 Years of Back to Black. Brand new for this year will also be sets from Sounds of South Africa and the London African Gospel Choir, who’ll be performing Paul Simon’s Graceland live.
As usual, spectators are invited to pack a blanket and some picky bits for a Bank Holiday picnic, with gourmet hampers, street food stalls and bars also available on the site, plus a kid’s area where you can entertain 3-10-year-olds with a variety of games and interactive activities.
