Outdoor Summer Series 2023: The Recap

To mark our 150th anniversary, we wanted to bring you one of the best summers of outdoor live music in our history. The British summer being what it is, the weather turned out wetter than we’d have liked. It didn’t stop you though, with thousands of you dancing and singing along to enjoying extraordinary live sets in our award-winning Park and its breathtaking panoramic views of London’s skyline.

The series kicked off with Bastille on 14 July (which we’ll continue referring to as “Bastille Day”), setting the stage for an eclectic lineup. Hozier took the spotlight on 21 July, mesmerizing the crowd with soulful vocals, while Ben Howard‘s folk-infused tunes enraptured the audience on 22 July.

This year’s edition will remain a cherished milestone, reflecting the enduring spirit of the Palace and our audience, as well as our commitment to continue delivering unforgettable live performances forever. As the curtains drew to a close, anticipation grew for the future, hinting at more beautiful moments yet to come in the next chapters of music at Ally Pally.
