BST Hyde Park has announced its programme of cultural activities, Open House.
Running for eight days across three weeks, Open House is a mostly free mix of concerts, workshops, cinema nights and performances in addition to the big gigs featuring the likes of P!NK, Lana Del Ray, Bruce Springsteen and Guns n Roses.
Kicking things off is All Things Orchestral; an evening of classical music by some of history’s great composers, alongside modern compositions and film scores too.
