Alfie Boe to headline Last Night of Proms event at Lytham

Taking place in the grounds of historic Lytham Hall on Sunday, August 28, the exclusive show will see Fleetwood-born Alfie perform alongside a full orchestra while the concert will be opened by special guest and fellow Broadway and West End star John Owen-Jones.

Last Night of The Proms is presented by Lytham Festival directors Cuffe & Taylor and follows the success of their WonderHall festival last summer which saw £153,000 donated to the continued restoration of Lytham Hall from the Russell Watson Proms concert.

All money raised from Alfie's spectacular will also be gifted to the Grade 1 listed venue.

Alfie Boe

Lytham Festival Presents Last Night of The Proms will be the first time Alfie has performed on the Lancashire coast since his sell-out Homecoming show at Fleetwood Town FC in 2018.

Alfie said: "I cannot wait to get back to perform on home ground. As a proud Lancastrian it will be very special for me and to stand in front of an audience which I am sure will have many familiar faces is just the icing on the cake.

"This will be a brilliant night in a magical setting and I look forward to seeing everyone there."

John Owen-Jones

Alfie will be joined on the evening by special guest and fellow tenor John Owen-Jones, famous for his portrayal of Jean Valjean in Les Misérables in the West End and on Broadway and who has played the title role in The Phantom of The Opera more than any other actor in the show’s West End history.

Promoter Peter Taylor said: "To have both Alfie and John performing on the same stage on the same evening will make this special for everyone."
