Friday Night
Live at Lumley Castle brings two of the most iconic voices of British music to one of the North East’s most spectacular settings.
Marti Pellow rose to global fame as the frontman of Wet Wet Wet, delivering era defining hits including Love Is All Around, Sweet Surrender and Wishing I Was Lucky. With multi million record sales and a successful career spanning the West End and Broadway, he remains one of the UK’s most accomplished live performers.
Joining him is multi award winning singer songwriter Gabrielle, whose unmistakable voice has produced timeless classics such as Dreams, Rise and Out of Reach. With two BRIT Awards, an Ivor Novello and multiple platinum albums, every one of her releases has reached the UK Top 10.
Set against the historic backdrop of Lumley Castle, this is a night built on legendary music, powerful live performance and pure nostalgia.
This is more than a concert. It is a premium day to night experience inside the grounds of Lumley Castle.
Choose from General Admission, VIP with dedicated viewing and fast track entry, or a limited VVIP experience featuring private raised tables, waiter service and exclusive hospitality. With strictly limited capacity and only a small number of premium packages available, early booking is strongly recommended.

The Tease
Opulence comes to Lumley Castle, County Durham DH3 4NX on Friday 4 September and Saturday 5 September 2026, transforming one of the UK’s most iconic historic venues into a premium live music experience.

Guests can attend either night or make a full weekend of it, with VIP & VVIP options and a limited number of overnight stays available within the castle itself.
