Singing With Nightingales - Sussex
Event Information
About this Event
In spring 2021, join folk singer Sam Lee and a special guest musician on an unforgettable adventure.
Enjoy songs and stories by the fireside followed by a late night trek into the woods to find the nightingales, then experience a concert like no other as Sam and the musicians join the birds in an improvised duet with their brilliant nightsong.
Come on this singular and memorable journey with us, as darkness falls upon the springtime woodlands of southern England.
Running from 7pm through to 12:30am, this is not a typical gig, and each night is unique. Enjoy an escape into nature, learn about these majestic birds, and marvel at the incredible human-avian musical collaboration.
Your ticket includes dinner and drinks provided round the campfire.
Tickets are extremely limited, with a maximum of 30 places per night. Overnight camping options will be available at our Sussex site.
