Stage set for a fantastic Audlem night

The stage is being assembled and doubtless the bands are rehearsing for one of the area's great events – Audlem Proms on the Park on Saturday.

The Band of the Duke of Lancaster's Regiment and the Band of the Lancashire Artillery Volunteers will join forces for this fabulous musical extravaganza culminating in the tradional Proms numbers – Elgar's Pomp and Circumstance March No 1; Jerusalem; Henry Wood's Fantasia on British Sea songs and Rule Britannia with Britannia leading the singing.

It's one of the highlights of the Audlem calendar and attracts thousands of visitors from near and far and is always a hugely enjoyable evening. To see thousands of happy revelers enjoying their picnic, then singing the traditional Proms numbers, waving hundreds of flags and finally enjoying the fireworks display that brings the concert to its close is always a great sight and an emotional occasion.
