Kempton Lates: Freddie Mercury Tribute Night
In partnership with Friends of Feltham Green
📅 Saturday 12th September | Doors open 6pm | Band from 7:30pm
First release of tickets now available – book early to secure your place and your early bird price.
This year marks 80 years since Freddie Mercury was born, and 35 years since the world lost one of its greatest ever performers. We're raising a glass (and a head of steam!) to celebrate the legend himself.
AN UNFORGETTABLE NIGHT INSIDE AN UNFORGETTABLE PLACE
Step inside one of London's best-kept secrets for a night you won't forget. Kempton Steam Museum is home to the Sir William Prescott – the world's largest working triple-expansion steam engine. This 800-ton giant once pumped millions of gallons of drinking water to Londoners every single day and tonight… he's your warm-up act.
Watch the Sir William Prescott build to full steam before the band takes the stage, through the interval, and signing off at the end of the night – giving this special music night a unique backdrop.
From 7:30pm, Supersonic Queen – one of the most electrifying Queen tribute experiences in the UK – takes over, delivering two electrifying sets across the evening. Expect all the anthems, all the showmanship, and more than a few moments that'll give you goosebumps.
And if you want the best seat in the house? Climb aboard up our Lady Bessie Prescott engine for an elevated view of the band and the museum floor below – an utterly unique vantage point that you'll be telling people about for years.
Come and join us, as we’re gonna have ourselves a real good time 🎸
