It's hard to believe it's almost over already, but the end of the Proms will once again be marked with a rousing finale with the annual Proms in the Park in Hyde Park this Saturday (September 10).

A feast of musical talent will join the event, which is the largest outdoor classical music concert in the UK, and marks the end of two months of concerts across London. The line-up crosses classical to contemporary music, with the BBC Concert Orchestra and Royal Choral Society appearing alongside Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons.

Also appearing are ABC, Rick Astley, All Saints, The Feeling, Juan Diego Florez, Sir James Galway, and Tim Minchin with the cast of Matilda the Musical.

Michael Ball will host the concert for the first time, as well as singing with Alfie Boe. A special tribute will be paid to Terry Wogan who presented the concert for eighteen years.

If you want to bag a ticket, they are available on the BBC website starting at £40. It’s a full day’s entertainment, with things kicking off at 3.30pm.

If you can’t be there but don’t want to miss it, there are plenty of other ways to watch the concert. There will be a big screen link-up in Royal Albert Hall, where the audience of the last concert will be able to join in the traditional Last Night sing-along.
