Hatfield House Music Festival

The Hatfield House Music Festival is a long weekend of concerts, curated by Artistic Director Guy Johnston, which takes place annually in September/October at Hatfield House in Hertfordshire.

The setting, musicians and audiences make this a warm, friendly Festival with exceptionally high artistic standards. Since its inception in 2012, the Festival has grown into a much-anticipated event for both locals and also for those who make a special journey to attend the Festival. Over the past years the Festival has welcomed performers such as the Navarra Quartet, Tom Poster, Sir András Schiff, Kathryn Stott, Melvyn Tan, Nicholas Daniel, Alison Balsom, Sheku Kanneh-Mason, Lucy Crowe, Rachel Podger, James Gilchrist, The Sixteen and the Aurora Orchestra – all to perform in the beautiful surroundings of Hatfield House. The Festival has a very strong Learning and Participation strand which runs alongside the main event and is committed to commissioning new works.
