Proms in the Park presented by Rutland Concert Band Oakham Festival



Lets hope people will stay awake this year!


Proms in the Park presented by Rutland Concert Band Oakham Bandstand Cutts Close

Following the success of last year’s FREE event, Rutland Concert Band return with guest singer, Caroline Trutz to present a sparkling programme of light hearted film themes followed by traditional proms favourites, in aid of Derbyshire, Leicestershire & Rutland Air Ambulance.

Programme to include Star Wars, The Magnificent Seven, 1812 Overture accompanied by pyrotechnic canon fire and All Saints church bellringers, Fantasia on British Sea Songs and Pomp & Circumstance March No. 1.

Enjoy an evening out with friends and family and we would ask that you show your appreciation by giving generously to this worthy cause.

Bring picnics, chairs, gazebos, candelabra and Union Jacks. Hot food and refreshments will be available together with a Festival Pimms tent.

Please note: This is a FREE, low cost event. As such, there will not be a sound system on the band so we encourage you to sit as close to the bandstand as possible. There will be pyrotechnic ‘bangs’ during 1812 so please bear this in mind if you are bringing dogs and small children. Thank you.

Free parking from 6pm

Live music from 7pm to 9pm



Sponsored by Oakham Town Council Oakham Town Council gave £500 for the bangers
that should wake the audience if required this year
