A natural amphitheatre in a Norfolk beauty spot is set to be transformed into a spectacular outdoor stage for a series of summer performances.

Next year's Cromer Hall Concerts, which take place on the Home Park field at Cromer Hall estate, promise to be something the whole family can enjoy, building on the success of the first shows at the venue in 2017.

BBC radio presenter Nick Conrad, who is promoting the August 2018 concerts, said it was already shaping up to be an occasion to remember.

Mr Conrad said: 'We were delighted with how this year's concert series went - we had thousands of people who thoroughly enjoyed themselves in the park.

'What we realised was that people wanted to have a massive outdoor party, and the thing that I loved was seeing young and old come together and dancing in front of the stage with a big symphony orchestra going full pelt.

'So this year we thought that the key theme needs to be dance, inclusively, bringing people together.

'We've gone for the type of music that everyone loves, regardless of age. They're middle-of-the-road, great entertainment, really good fun acts.'

The August 3 concert will feature The Magic of Motown, a show which brings back the music of Marvin Gaye, Diana Ross, Stevie Wonder, The Temptations, The Supremes and more.

August 4 will see tribute bands Killer Queen and Abba Revival take the stage. And on August 5 the world-famous Glenn Miller Orchestra will bring their big band sound to Cromer for the final concert of the series.

The grand 1829 country house Cromer Hall provides part of the impressive backdrop to the planned summer concert series.

The Grade II-listed flint building is said to be the inspiration for Baskerville Hall in one of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's most famous Sherlock Holmes mysteries, The Hound of the Baskervilles.

Mr Conrad said he could imagine a better spot for live music outdoors.

He said: 'Out of all the venues I've been at, this is definitely my favourite.

'You get this amazing summer view of the greenery, the hall, the church punching up into the sky and out over the North Sea.

'As you sit here as lights go down on a summer's evening it creates the most special atmosphere, with the music, the sense of fun and everyone dancing.'
