Join us for Piano Day 2025 – a day dedicated to celebrating the wonderful instrument! Begun by German pianist and composer Nils Frahm, who performed at Bristol Beacon last year, Piano Day is held on the 88th day of the year, representing the 88 keys on a standard piano.
We’ve got activities planned throughout the day, keeping the building alive with the sweet instrumental sounds – and we want you to take part in our open piano!
Then as we move into the evening, the enigmatic Lambert will take centre stage in Lantern Hall. Known for his serene piano compositions and cinematic landscapes, Lambert will be performing his latest album, Actually Good, live for the very first time.
