Posting on the event’s Facebook page, the Battle Proms team wrote: “We realise that many of our customers are understandably concerned about coronavirus, and that you might be looking ahead to what this may mean for the concerts.

“We appreciate that there is a great deal of uncertainty surrounding the coming months.

“We want to reassure you that the Battle Proms Concerts are currently going ahead and that we are working hard to create our series of spectacular open-air concerts in July and August.

“Customer safety is always our top priority, as is that of our wonderful performers, traders, volunteers and staff.

“We are very carefully monitoring the way the situation is changing, and we continue to follow Government advice.”

Adult tickets for Battle Proms cost £38 until midnight April 30.

They are priced £41 until midnight the day before the concert, and £46 on the day, subject to availability.
