Sounds Green 2026: Week 2

Dance along to the wonderful music of Arun Ghosh Quintet

Normal Admission

Event details

Wednesday 8 July 2026
6.15 - 8.30pm

Book

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.

Bringing its trademark IndoJazz to Sounds Green this summer, we’re excited to host the Arun Ghosh Quintet once again. Clarinettist Arun Ghosh is a leading light on the UK jazz scene and captivates audiences with his passionate and dynamic performance style, and a healthy dose of rock ‘n’ roll spirit.

🎵 Picnics are welcome. Food and drink will be provided by a variety of food trucks, Jack’s Gelato and The Garden Café.

🎵 Bring a rug or picnic chair and relax in beautiful surroundings to some stunning musical sounds!

🎵 Tickets available – see “Book” button above.

A person is seated with a clarinet, in front of a piano. They are wearing a leopard print outfit and have a short beard.
