Nocturne Live at Blenheim Palace

About this festival

Nocturne Live is a series of musical concerts and gigs at the stunning Blenheim Palace in Oxfordshire. Inviting a selection of world-class acts to its Great Court, Nocturne is all about great music and summer relaxation.

Legendary disco band Chic & Nile Rodgers will headline the event on Thursday 14 June. Multiple Grammy-winning composer, producer, arranger, and guitarist Nile Rogers is responsible for a string of worldwide hits including Let’s Dance by David Bowie, Diana Ross’ I’m Coming Out and Sister Sledge’s classic hit We Are Family.

His partnership with Chic has become a household name, with the group's groovy funk and dance vibes some of the most distinctive and symbolic music of recent times, and hits such as Le Freak, Everybody Dance and Good Times now staples of every record collection.

Arguably the greatest British songwriter of his generation, Noel Gallagher recently became the first artist in UK Chart history to have ten consecutive number one albums.
