Speaking to the Bedford Independent, Mark Harrison thanked music fans for their patience during concert delays and rescheduling.
“It was never going to be an easy task to get all our artistes to align but we’ve done it. We are so happy to be able to bring Bedford Park Concerts back to the park in 2021.
“I cannot thank our loyal customers enough for all the messages of support and encouragement over the last 15 months.
“It has been an incredibly difficult time for the events and live music industry and we can’t wait to see you all this year, just a little later than planned in September!”
Tomorrow, Cafe Mambo returns to Bedford Park with sets from DJ’s Pete Tong, Danny Howard, and Sister Bliss.
On Sunday, it’ll be the 25th anniversary of Bedford Park Proms with Wynne Evans, Victoria Joyce and the London Gala Orchestra.
