Mariza sings Fado @ The Proms

Make a date with destiny at this late-night Proms celebration of fado, the musical soul of Portugal. Fado literally means ‘fate’ and the genre’s keening melodies are charged with passion, longing and despair.

Tonight we’ll hear Mariza, one of the tradition’s greatest living exponents, together with her band. Their Proms debut features favourite songs from her 20-year career as well as a glimpse of her forthcoming album

Tickets are £8 purchasable at 10.30am on the day of the Prom

We can meet half an hour before the gig starts - for a drink (soft or alcoholic as you wish)

Shows normally start an hour after the 'doors open' time.

Coordinating buying seats so we can sit together sounds way too complicated, but often gigs have standing tickets only so if that's the case we can stay together as a group

If this is your first Meet Up group don't worry, I'll try to make you feel welcome and introduce you to other members of the group as soon as you arrive 🙂
