We’re delighted to announce the dates for this year’s summer Finchcocks music festival.
On Saturday 17 and Sunday 18 August 2024, Finchcocks private gardens will open to the public. Saturday sees the return of Jazz on the lawn in the beautiful, walled garden and Sunday an open-air piano concert against the west elevation on our outdoor stage.
