Classical Vauxhall is coming back for its third year, bringing outstanding new and established artists to Vauxhall. This series is inspired by the visionary Jonathan Tyers, who opened the Vauxhall Pleasure Gardens to make entertainment accessible to everyone.

Funded by Vauxhall One and run by Artistic Director Fiachra Garvey, this year we have expanded the festival to include 5 distinct performances, each with its own theme, spread over 4 days in St Mark’s Church.

So let us bring you back from the depths of winter with a heart-warming classical experience in a beautiful setting.
