Festival Crowd Header

Historic Royal Palaces and IMG are incredibly excited to welcome Crowded House for Hampton Court Palace Festival 2022.

Taking to the stage in the historic Base Court of the Palace on Saturday 25 June, Crowded House will treat fans new and old to their instantly recognizable slew of hits with tickets available on Friday 15 October.


After disbanding in 1996, the reinvigorated band reformed in 2006, subsequently releasing two number one albums. Joining founding members Neil Finn – who recently joined Fleetwood Mac's hugely successful world tour – and Nick Seymour will be Mitchell Froom and Nick’s sons, Liam and Elroy Finn. With timeless classics such as ‘Don’t Dream It’s Over’ and ‘Weather With You’, as well new material such as this year’s Dreamers Are Waiting, Crowded House will light up Henry VIII’s former home.


Crowded House join the Hampton Court Palace Festival line up already announced, featuring soul king Lionel Richie, who is set to perform over two dance-filled nights on Wednesday 8 and Thursday 9 June, and jazz-funk legend George Benson, who will take to the stage on Thursday 16 June. More dates and artists to be announced in the coming weeks. In August of this year, the festival wrapped a hugely popular run of dates featuring Tom Jones as well as sold out shows for Björn Again, Bastille ReOrchestrated, who were joined on-stage by pop icon Rick Astley, Keane, Nile Rodgers & CHIC and Van Morrison.


Hampton Court Palace Festival is a series of truly special and unique open-air concerts. Artists perform in an intimate 3,000-seat auditorium in Base Court, set against the backdrop of Henry VIII’s magnificent Tudor Palace.
