Sunday 26 July closes the Live at Melbourne Hall weekend with a warm and uplifting celebration of British country music. The brand-new, open-air site brings The Shires, Ward Thomas, Catherine McGrath and Minna to the stately home for a day rich in harmony, storytelling and homegrown charm on Crow Park.
Set against the natural beauty of Melbourne Hall’s grounds, The Shires deliver their soaring, Nashville-approved sound with the unmistakable ease of a duo who have helped shape the UK’s growing country scene. Ward Thomas bring their celebrated blend of close-knit vocals and modern country-pop, their music resonating deeply in the rolling Derbyshire landscape. Catherine McGrath adds an intimate, heartfelt touch, her acoustic warmth shaped by both Ireland and Nashville, while Minna introduces an adventurous folk-rooted edge that echoes beautifully through the estate. Together, they turn the final day into a pastoral, harmony-driven finale to the weekend.
Day tickets, VIP packages and weekend passes are all available, with a variety of street food, craft beer bars on site and limited parking throughout the event.
Live At Melbourne Hall gets its summer events underway with a three-day extravaganza in a brand-new, open-air site at the South Derbyshire stately home. Taking place 24–26 July, Melbourne Hall will host UK favourites as Jo Whiley, The Lightning Seeds, The Shires, Scott Mills’ Pop Party, Maxïmo Park and lots more within Crow Park.
Across the weekend, Melbourne Hall’s grounds become the perfect backdrop for a musical journey spanning over three decades of British talent. Friday’s DJ-led celebration channels the spirit of the 90s and the pure joy of pop culture, with Jo Whiley reviving the decade she helped define, Scott Mills delivering the biggest mainstream hits from then and now, and Toby Spin adding a fresh twist that keeps the night buzzing.
Saturday shifts into indie-rock euphoria, where Lightning Seeds bring their shimmering, melodic anthems to the lawns. Maxïmo Park follow with their trademark, literate, high-energy performance - alive with the emotional intensity and restless reflections that power their new album Stream of Life and driven by the urgent, celebratory energy that has made them one of the UK’s most exhilarating live bands for over 20 years. Riding The Low add the raw, Midlands-rooted indie spirit that feels right at home in Derbyshire’s landscape, while Propaganda DJs keep the festival feel alive long into the evening.
Sunday’s sunshine sets the stage for the UK’s finest country artists. The Shires return with their Nashville-approved harmonies, Ward Thomas bring heartfelt storytelling through their renowned sisterly blend, Catherine McGrath offers warm acoustic emotion shaped by both Ireland & Tennessee and Minna’s adventurous folk tones drift beautifully across the gardens - creating a pastoral finale to the weekend.
