With less than a month to go until the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra returns to Robin Hill Adventure Park for an unforgettable weekend of classical music, Classic Isle has announced a spectacular new addition to its Sunday evening programme.
A cinematic finale
A Night at the Movies: The Best of Williams & Zimmer, taking place on Sunday 12th July, will conclude with a breathtaking drone light show inspired by the iconic film scores performed by the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra.
Created by aerial display specialists LumaNation, the show will transform the night sky into a cinematic spectacle, providing a fitting finale to an evening celebrating two of Hollywood’s greatest composers.
From Star Wars to Harry Potter
The evening will begin with performances from acclaimed violinist Lizzie Ball and internationally renowned pianist James Pearson, before the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra takes audiences on a musical journey through the worlds of John Williams and Hans Zimmer.
From Star Wars and Jurassic Park to Harry Potter, the concert will showcase some of the most recognisable and beloved film music ever written.
What the organisers say
Paul Cox, Classic Isle Director, said,
“We’re thrilled to be partnering with LumaNation to add an extra touch of magic to A Night at the Movies.
“Combining the incredible talent of the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra with a bespoke drone light show inspired by some of cinema’s greatest scores promises to create a truly unforgettable experience for audiences of all ages.”
Nicola Methold, owner of LumaNation, said,
“We’re delighted to be working with Classic Isle and the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra on this unique event,
“Our team has designed a show that celebrates the wonder, adventure and emotion of these iconic movie soundtracks, and we can’t wait to bring it to life in the skies above the beautiful Robin Hill Adventure Park.”
Two evenings of music
On Saturday 11th July, the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra will take to the stage for Proms ’26 – an uplifting evening of pomp, circumstance and patriotic favourites, culminating in a spectacular fireworks finale. Guests are invited to bring a picnic, relax in the beautiful surroundings of Robin Hill and enjoy a programme of much-loved Proms classics. The evening will open with performances from violinist Lizzie Ball and exciting local talents Thomas Luke (pianist) and Thea Callaghan (soprano).
Classic Isle is delighted to present a second evening of world-class entertainment on Sunday 12th July with A Night at the Movies: The Best of Williams & Zimmer. Designed as an immersive experience for all ages, this concert will celebrate the music behind some of cinema’s most memorable moments, brought to life by the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra and enhanced by the specially commissioned drone light show.
