Wells Party at the Palace to bring East 17 to city
By Laura Linham 23rd Mar 2026
East 17 are set to headline Party at the Palace in Wells this summer as early bird tickets go on sale for the three-day event at the Bishop's Palace.
The weekend festival will run from Friday, 3 July to Sunday, 5 July, bringing live music, family entertainment and throwback favourites to one of the city's best-known landmarks.
Saturday is being billed as the standout night, with East 17 leading the line-up for a 90s headline event under the summer sky. They will be joined by Dave Finnegan's Commitments and Sonia for a full afternoon and evening of live music from 3pm to 10.30pm, with early bird tickets from £30.
Friday opens with the Country Superstars Theatre Tour, celebrating Dolly Parton and other country favourites with a live band and West End performers. That event runs from 7pm to 10.30pm, with early bird tickets from £20.
Sunday shifts to a more family-focused finish, with a Kids Party at the Palace featuring Pop Queens Live. Organisers say the event will bring pop hits, dancing and family fun from 4pm to 7pm, with early bird tickets from £10.
The Bishop's Palace says only a limited number of early bird tickets are available.
For Wells, the big pull is clear — a full summer weekend of music in a historic setting, with East 17 top of the bill on Saturday night.
