Prepare to be swept away by BBC Proms: 100 Years of the Shipping Forecast at the Ulster Hall, Belfast on 08 August 2025!
Featuring the Ulster Orchestra with Conductor Chloé Van Soeterstède.
Cromarty, Forth, Tyne... The Proms celebrates the centenary of the Shipping Forecast, heard daily on BBC Radio 4, a lifeline to all those at sea and a poetic salve for countless others on land.
With presenters from Radio 4’s Continuity team, music inspired by the oceans and the elements, and a new work by Poet Laureate Simon Armitage and his group LYR, this is an event that speaks to the heart of our island nation.
