More acts been revealed for Nocturne Live, the series of summer concerts which takes place at The Great Court of Blenheim Palace, Woodstock, Oxfordshire between Thursday 18th and Sunday 21st June 2020.

With a show on Friday 19th June 2020 are two from Scotland, with headliners Simple Minds, and 'very special guests' Deacon Blue.

Simple Minds’ Jim Kerr says: “You’ll hear all the classics, and all the big songs. And for the hard core we’ll be playing some songs that we haven’t played for a while. Simple Minds are different now. We’re not a stock rock band, but we haven’t changed our line-up to be cool. We’ve done it because it’s great to have so many amazing players on board. I’m grateful for the career we’ve had, but I’m mad enough to think we can still hit new levels. This is what we do – write, record and play live.”

Tickets will go on sale at 9am on Friday 21st February, priced from £35.
