Bringing the Proms Back to Bedford Park

You may have read the excellent news that the ever-popular Proms in the Park event is returning to Bedford Park this year. In the last few years it had moved out to Twinwoods in Clapham and, while I am told that the event was enjoyed by all as always, many people have told me how much they miss enjoying the concert in the beautiful surroundings of Bedford Park, not to mention the easier access to central Bedford for the vast majority of concert-goers. We were therefore very keen to strike a deal with the promoters, the Full Effect, and I am very pleased we reached agreement which will see many local residents and visitors come into Bedford over that weekend to enjoy some great music and another exciting event for Bedford.

I went along to the Park earlier this week to meet the Full Effect's Mark Harrison on site, and he talked me through some of the exciting plans for this year's event.

The Proms returns on Saturday 23rd July. Event details will be available at www.thefulleffect.co.uk
