A NEW Summer Festival is coming to Mid Sussex.

A Boundless Summer will take place in the grounds of Borde Hill Garden, Haywards Heath on July 7 and 8.

Headline acts are UB40 (plus support ASWAD) and The Gipsy Kings featuring Nicolas Reyes & Tonnino Baliardo.

Carl Fillery, CEO of Boundless, said: “We are absolutely thrilled to be hosting our first ever summer festival, A Boundless Summer, at Borde Hill Garden and Bowood House.

“The range of world-class acts on offer means there really is something for everybody.

“We’re a club dedicated to helping people get the most from their free time so we’re delighted to be able to offer members of the public a chance to experience a Boundless event.”

Borde Hill is a Grade II English Heritage garden set in 200 acres of parkland with magnificent views across the Ouse Valley viaduct.

The concerts will take place in the parkland setting in front of the lakes and with the backdrop of the Elizabethan Mansion House.

There will be a good quality range of catering and refreshments available to purchase on-site, and guests are able to pre-order a picnic hamper for collection on the evening of the show, to enjoy in the grounds.

Attendees will also be able to bring in small camping chairs and picnic blankets from which to enjoy the concerts.

Boundless is a club dedicated to civil-service and public-sector workers - active and retired - looking to get more out of life for less.

Members pay a small fee per year, and are given access to exclusive days out, holidays, ideas and offers.

A Boundless Summer, the company’s inaugural festival, is being opened up to the general public, who, for the first time, also have the option to join Boundless upon buying tickets, giving them access to the exclusive deals on offer year-round.

Legendary reggae and pop band, UB40 will be performing on July 7.

UB40 are celebrating 40 years in the business along with the release of a new album in conjunction with PledgeMusic.

The band has had more than 50 singles in the UK singles chart and has also achieved considerable international success.

They have been nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Reggae Album four times, and in 1984 were nominated for the Brit Award for Best British Group.

UB40 have sold over 100 million records worldwide.

The ethnic make-up of the band’s line-up is diverse with musicians of English, Irish, Jamaican, Scottish and Yemeni parentage.

The Gipsy Kings featuring Nicolas Reyes and Tonnino Baliardo will take to the stage on Sunday July 8.

It has been 25 years since they captured the world’s imagination with their self-titled debut album—a record that became a genuine phenomenon, certified gold and platinum around the globe, introducing millions of listeners to a unique, irresistible blend of traditional flamenco styles with Western pop and Latin rhythms.

Since then, the band has sold almost 20 million albums, all the while retaining the same line-up of virtuoso musicians.
