Party at the Palace 2025

About Us

Mark your calendars for Saturday, 12th July 2025, and join us from 3pm to 11pm for Party at the Palace—the biggest music event in Wells! Set against the stunning backdrop of The Bishop's Palace, this unforgettable day promises an incredible lineup of live music, featuring the folk-rock brilliance of Seth Lakeman, the West Country charm of The Wurzels, the lively energy of Mad Dog Mcrea, the eclectic sounds of 3 Daft Monkeys, and the classic brass melodies of the Wells City Band.

The Line-up:

Seth Lakeman - Westcountry singer-songwriter Seth was catapulted into the music mainstream when he was nominated for the Mercury Music Prize for his album 'Kitty Jay'.

The Wurzels - Embrace the authentic South West Scrumpy n' Western vibes as The Wurzels. Pioneers of the genre, The Wurzels bring their comical folk style and double-entendre-packed hits, making them the perfect accompaniment to cider-drinking enthusiasts!

Mad Dog Mcrea - Mad Dog Mcrea blend a unique mixture of folk rock, pop, gypsy jazz and bluegrass music. From self-penned songs of adventure, drinking, love and life, to traditional songs of gypsies, fairies, legless pirates and black flies – Mad Dog never fail to capture their audience with their infectious songs.

3 Daft Monkeys - With a fiery helter-skelter blend of influences from East and West, Monkeys inject a unique wildness into their music, producing a symphonious cacophony of styles. Silvery vocal melodies soar above percussive global beats and rhythms, while passionate fiddle-driven tunes weave around animated guitar and bass, all presented with outstanding musicianship in their famously theatrical live performances.

Wells City Band - Wells City Band is considered one of the oldest brass bands in the country. Formed in 1839 the band has been serving the community of Wells, its surrounding villages, and towns for over 180 years.
