American Express presents Roundhay Festival is thrilled to announce that the extraordinary classical music experience, All Things Orchestral, will be coming to Leeds for the first time next month. Hosted by Myleene Klass MBE, the Hallé Orchestra – conducted by Stephen Bell – will whisk the audience on a journey through time, celebrating Cinematic Classics and much more. The full programme is to be announced. Tickets go on sale on Friday 5 June, visit www.roundhayfestival.com
True to the accessible ethos of Roundhay Festival, All Things Orchestral will offer affordable tickets. With many orchestras and arts organisations struggling, and attendance of classical performances in decline, All Things Orchestral is here to remind people of the power of classical music, and introduce it to new audiences. Ticket prices will be available from £14.95 on first release, with family rates from £9.95.
Stephen Bell is a British conductor who trained under Norman Del Mar at the Royal College of Music and has built a varied international career. He holds leadership roles with the City of Oxford Orchestra, Hallé Pops, and RTÉ Concert Orchestra, and works regularly with major UK ensembles including the Royal Philharmonic, BBC orchestras, and Bournemouth Symphony. His work spans classical recordings, BBC Proms appearances, television broadcasts, and collaborations with pop and folk artists.
Compere for the evening will be TV and radio presenter, classically trained musician, bestselling author and passionate campaigner, Myleene Klass MBE. Mylene has also hosted major shows like The Classic BRITs, Popstar to OperaStar, The One Show and Musical Masterpieces, presented on Classic FM and Smooth Radio since 2006 and 2014 respectively, and released multiple No.1 classical albums alongside Sunday Times bestselling parenting books.
Set in the stunning location of Roundhay Park, fans will be taken on a summer evening’s journey through classical music, both traditional and modern. This special event promises to be a spectacle for thousands of fans, offering not only the allure of exceptional music but also the beauty of the surroundings.
Roundhay Festival, Leeds’s newest summer cultural highlight, will debut in July 2026 in the iconic Roundhay Park, a venue with a legendary musical history, including Madonna, The Rolling Stones, Michael Jackson, Genesis and Ed Sheeran. This year’s inaugural weekend sees world-class headliners take to the stage: Pitbull (Friday 3 July) and Lewis Capaldi (Saturday 4 July). The weekend will be rounded off with All Things Orchestral (Sunday 5 July)
