Customer respect policy
We would ask that customers be aware of their surroundings during their time at the concert and as they make their way to and from the concert area. The Royal Botanic Gardens Kew is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and we are honoured to be guests within it for the duration of the concert series. We wish to help preserve the beautiful grounds, iconic buildings and rare plants and as such we ask that all concert goers respect the grounds and plants including disposing of litter properly and using the facilities provided.
