This all-day event is open to young people, music fans and families, and is a refreshing alternative to rock festivals. The crowd is made up of all ages and particularly attracts the former clubbing generation who, armed with babies, buggies and toddlers are happy to swap hot n sweaty, soulful house for chilled-out, soulful jazz in the lovely British outdoors.

The live programme on the day is intentionally eclectic to represent the wide variety of music presented at the Jazz Cafe itself throughout the year.

This year there's:-
Zero 7, Femi Kuti and the Positive force, Nouvelle Vague, Breakestra, Koop, and Snowboy & The Latin Section

Gates open at 1:30pm. Guests are allowed to bring picnics and drinks but can also take advantage of the onsite bars.

Tickets are on sale, priced at £35. To buy, click here.

With its riverside setting and 66 acres of parkland, Marble Hill was completed in 1729, originally built for King George IIs mistress. The stunning English Palladian villa houses early Georgian paintings and furniture and features lavish architecture and decoration.

There'll be more information here when available.
