Summer Music In The Gardens

Spend a perfect afternoon relaxing on the lawns of Hillsborough Castle and Gardens, as a selection of artists play in picturesque royal surroundings every Saturday throughout the summer months.

Indulge in a drink and sweet treat from our award-winning café as you settle back to listen. Or bring a picnic, kick off your shoes and enjoy with friends and all the family.

During the 20-minute interval, take a stroll around the 100 acre gardens in summer bloom, included in your ticket. Or upgrade your ticket and visit the inside of Northern Ireland's only royal residence. 

Every Saturday between 14:00 and 16:00.
