THE POPULAR Confetti Flower Fields near Pershore are set to reopen for the season from next Saturday, June 20, to July 5.
The vibrant displays of confetti cornflowers and an abundance of wildflowers create a breathtaking kaleidoscope of colour across the fields – perfect to be enjoyed during these summer months.
Now in its 12th year, the Confetti Flower Fields have become one of the UK’s most popular summer countryside attractions, welcoming thousands of visitors each season.
This year, the venue will also host live concerts, including Toyah Wilcox, ABBA Tribute Band and Purcell’s King Arthur opera performed by Armonico Consort.
Tickets to be won
Tickets for these events are expected to be much sought-after and we at the Observer have four pairs of tickets to give away to our readers for one of the concerts of their choice.
Purcell’s King Arthur Opera (June 25) – Step into a magical midsummer evening where music, myth, and nature meet in a bold and beautiful reimagining of King Arthur. Armonico Consort, which is returning with the show, has enjoyed huge success with its semi-staged Purcell productions. The piece is narrated by Oz Clarke who, now a wine expert, was a full-time actor and singer, once performing in the lead role of Sweeney Todd at Drury Lane and General Peron in Evita. The fields will open at 6pm and the concert – two hours and a 20-minute interval – will begin at 7.30pm.
Toyah Wilcox (June 27) – The super singer-songwriter who was a pioneer figure in the UK’s new wave and post-punk movement, takes centre stage with her band for ‘A Summer Evening with TOYAH’. She will perform her favourite hits and reflect on her remarkable career during this intimate and personal performance. The fields open at 6pm with the concert starting at 8.15pm.
ABBA Tribute Band (July 4) – Featuring the group’s very own Agnetha, Frida, Benny and Bjorn, this show will take viewers back to the feelgood era of the 1970s and 1980s.
This high-energy tribute delivers spectacular costumes, dynamic choreography and powerful live vocals in a fully interactive show guaranteed to get the audience singing and dancing along.
The fields open at 6pm and the 90-minute concert, with a short interval, starts at 8pm.
