One of the most popular events in the borough’s cultural calendar, Langtons Summer Concert, will return on Sunday 9 June from 3pm to 5pm. ​

The concert will be in the grounds of Langtons House and will feature the Westminster Philharmonic Orchestra.

Admission is free and residents will be able to bring their own picnics and chairs. Last year, around 2,000 residents and dignitaries listened to two hours of classical music, performed by the Westminster Philharmonic Orchestra, in the gardens of the stately house, in Billet Lane, Hornchurch.

The event is part of Hornchurch’s Festival of Arts & Heritage, the month-long programme of cultural events being held in the town that has been organised by Havering Council.

Councillor Andrew Curtin, Cabinet Member for Culture, Towns and Communities, said:

“The summer hasn’t been as bright as we had hoped so far, but I’m sure that this concert will lift everyone’s spirits, no matter the weather. 

“This is one of the first of a number of great events we have to look forward to in the coming months, and what a wonderful start.”​
