🎶 Summer Music Sunday at RHS Garden Bridgewater 🌿
Join us tomorrow, Sunday 21 June for a beautifully relaxed afternoon in the garden as we celebrate Summer Music Sunday – perfectly timed with the summer solstice 🌞

Find a sunny spot, settle into a chair or picnic blanket, and soak up the sounds of Mancunian musician Ellen Beth Abdi , whose soulful, synth-rich music creates the perfect soundtrack for a lazy summer afternoon. Expect uplifting melodies, gentle rhythms and a lovely, laid-back atmosphere in our Wellbeing Garden.

With performances at 2pm and 3pm, you can dip in and out as you explore the garden, enjoy a coffee, or simply unwind in nature. Bring along friends, family, or enjoy a quiet moment to yourself, and if you feel like it, there’s always room for a little dance too 💃🌿

✨ It’s also Father’s Day, making it a perfect way to treat someone special to a memorable day out together.

🌼 Pack a picnic or pick up something delicious on site, and let the music carry you into the longest, lightest days of the year
