Sounds of the 40s in the Gardens

Join us for a nostalgic journey into the golden era of the 1940s

Set against the beautiful backdrop of Burghley’s Sculpture Garden, enjoy an afternoon of timeless tunes performed by a fabulous vintage vocalist. Immerse yourself in the spirit of 1940s Britain with hits from the likes of the Andrews Sisters, Vera Lynn, and Ella Fitzgerald, along with some lesser-known gems. Bring the whole family along to soak up the charming atmosphere and let the music transport you to a bygone era.

During your visit take in the beauty of the Gardens in full summer bloom or head to Hide & Secrets with the little ones for an outdoor adventure. The Gardens and Adventure Play are open from 10am to 5pm with performances from our 1940s vocalist between 12 noon and 4pm.
