Somerset House Summer Series with American Express Tickets

Please note: In light of advice from the Government, we have made the difficult decision to postpone putting tickets on sale for this year’s Summer Series.

We’ve announced a brilliant line-up of acts, and we very much hope that we can bring them to our audiences this summer. We have to respond to current circumstances and believe it’s better to delay putting tickets on sale at this point. We hope to be on sale at the earliest opportunity.

Marking 20 years of outstanding open-air live music at Somerset House, Somerset House Summer Series with American Express returns for eleven nights of exceptional gigs this July.

An unmissable summer experience, the series brings a vibrant festival atmosphere right to the heart of London, offering music fans the rare opportunity to enjoy world-renowned and upcoming acts, across a wide range of genres in a spectacular, intimate setting.
