The organisers behind Shropshire Petal Fields in Newport have announced two new music events which will be staged within their picturesque flower field event space.
On Friday, 31 July there will be an ABBA tribute night for Pop in the Petals featuring ABBASensation (PICTURED). Organisers are encouraging fancy dress and dancing.
Then Proms in the Petals: Films & Musicals Edition will take place on on Saturday 1 August. A 50-piece orchestra led by conductor Bedwyn Phillips will perform songs from film, stage, and screen. The stage will be positioned within the field, with guests encouraged to bring picnic blankets to enjoy the open-air concert.
The opening dates for the main Shropshire Petal Fields event aren’t revealed until the flower team can be sure the blooms will be at their best from the 3.5 million seeds that are planted for the event.
Shropshire Petal Fields is due to be open for 11 days in August. Visitors can wander through a colourful flower field of delphiniums, cornflowers, sunflowers, and wildflowers, and explore some woods next to a tranquil lake.
