After the cancellation of Hampton Court Palace Festival in 2020, the West London musical feast will be back in style for 2021 this August. The programme is set to be a triumphant return, featuring a stellar lineup of artists including Nile Rogers & CHIC, Tom Jones, Van Morrison, Keane, Bastille ReOrchestrated and Bjorn Again (with Rick Astley, Lionel Ritchie and George Benson scheduled for 2022).
