Pack up a picnic, stock up on fizz and join us for the UK's premier classical picnic proms! The 12th annual Highclere Castle Battle Proms Concert will take place on Saturday 4 August 2012. As well as the usual highlights such as the Napoleonic cavalry, 200 live cannons, Spitfire display, breathtaking fireworks and a sing along proms finale, the 2012 Battle Proms will celebrate with a Diamond Jubilee Gun Salute, fired manually by a team of gunners from a vintage QF Field Gun. This event is known to sell out so book early to avoid disappointment.

What a debacle. We aimed to get to concert half an hour before the gates opened and got caught up in horrendous traffic jams. Sat in traffic for one hour. No-one appearing to organise the congestion. A lone policeman looking totally lost walking up and down the road talking on his mobile phone achieving nothing. Finally getting into the venue - hardly any room. Stuck right at the back with only one large screen by the stage which you could barely see. Coffee £3.00 a cup. Unable to really take in the atmosphere - thank God for the Spitfire - at least we saw that. Strike this off for next year. Suggest another large screen for those in the back of the audience.
