Music lovers unite, as the The Lexicon Summer Proms returns to Bond Square in Bracknell town centre on Saturday, September 7, 2024.

From 12.00 midday until 7.00 pm visitors to the town centre, will be able to sit on the giant steps in Bond Square, and enjoy an afternoon of entertainment featuring an array of performers, including lots of local acts and stars from further afield.

“Our annual proms event has become a highlight of our summer activity, which this year falls on our seventh birthday,” says The Lexicon’s head of marketing Sue Boor. “We hope that the array of different acts we have performing this year, will appeal to a wide audience, with something to get everyone’s toes tapping.”

At 12.00 midday the show will open with Get Gospel Choir, singing a range of classic and contemporary gospel tunes, original versions of pop songs and old hymns.
