The Royal Hospital Chelsea, the home of the Chelsea Pensioners

Live at Chelsea returns to the Royal Hospital

7th March 2017

The Royal Hospital Chelsea is very pleased to be hosting the Live at Chelsea summer concert series for the third year running.

Set within the grounds of the 325 year old Sir Christopher Wren designed Royal Hospital, the Chelsea Pensioners will once again be welcoming the public to four nights of musical entertainment in June. This will include the return of the Chelsea Fireworks Prom featuring the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.

The four day series will be kicked-off by Scottish indie pop band Belle & Sebastian (Thursday 15th June) and Italian pianist and composer Ludovico Einaudi will be performing for the final two nights. It is the third time the home of the Chelsea Pensioners has hosted this summer concert series, with past headliners including Wet Wet Wet, Simply Red and Damien Rice.
