4.00The musicians.and program are excellent and the venue is much better.than the various church venues that host many similar concerts. The only negative is the excessive price compared to buying it on your own.
Fantastic

4.00The performance was fantastic, and the views from the fortress were very impressive. The overall experience was hampered a little by people sitting infront of my partner and I (stage was not very high) but it was still enjoyable. The only benefit to paying extra for the category 1 seats is that you can have a bit of a look around the fortress grounds, and turn up a few minutes before the performance starts. The seats aren't necessarily better though
Perfect evening experience
