SUMMARY:'In Elgar's Footsteps': Guided Walk and Recital (Elgar Festival 2026)
DESCRIPTION:Last year’s guided walk was so popular it sold out! \nParticipants meet at Gardiner’s Quarry car park (all-day parking\, payable by card: £6.50) on Jubilee Drive to embark on an an hour’s guided walk along Elgar’s beloved tracks and footpaths down to St Wulstan’s Church\, including the opportunity to visit Eye Well and the Holywell building on route. \nRefreshments are available before a short recital at 11.15am featuring his deeply personal String Quartet performed by the exceptional LANO quartet led by last year’s soloist at this event\, Shuwei Zuo. \nThere will be time to explore the Elgar family graves before your guide leads the way back. Approximate return time: 1pm \nThe walking route is hilly and uneven and no dogs are allowed. \nThose who would rather not walk are welcome to book for the recital and refreshments only from 10.45am. There is no designated church car park but on-street parking is available. \nTickets: book online via the Elgar Festival website. \nVisit the Elgar Festival website for more of this year’s events.
