A celebration of summer and music, Sounds Green takes place every Wednesday evening in July on the Garden’s Main Lawn, providing a perfect opportunity to embrace sights, sounds and summer scents in the Garden with family and friends on a (hopefully) warm, summer evening.
The Essex Jazz Collective is an exciting new 6-piece jazz band with members based in North West Essex. EJC plays a full range of fun, singable jazz plus crossover songs that will have you humming for days afterwards. Whether it’s Blues or Bebop, smoochy Ballads or the Great American Song Book, there is something for everyone to enjoy.
🎵 Picnics are welcome. Food and drink will be provided by Pull Me Cheri, Jack’s Gelato and The Garden Café.
🎵 Bring a rug or picnic chair and relax in beautiful surroundings to some stunning musical sounds!
🎵 Tickets will be available from June.
