Suffolk Celebration Concert

A spectacular one-night-only performance of music, dance and word in the magnificent Cathedral, in support of Suffolk Community Foundation.

About Suffolk, By Suffolk, For Suffolk

Hosted by acclaimed actress and broadcaster Helen Atkinson Wood, and curated by theatre director and actor Nick Hutchison, the evening features an exceptional line-up including legendary keyboard virtuoso Rick Wakeman, Britten Pears Arts, St Edmundsbury Choir, DanceEast, broadcaster and writer Libby Purves, British cultural historian, biographer and novelist Lucy Hughes-Hallett, distinguished journalist Martin Bell, and Suffolk favourite Charlie Haylock — alongside acclaimed literary voices, emerging young performers and original new works created especially for the occasion.
