Where music feels closer
DEBUT at Queen’s House, Greenwich for Valentine’s Day
Not your typical classical concert, not your typical night out.
Saturday 14 February 2025
6:15PM — 7:45PM (early show)
8:00PM — 9:30PM (late show)
Join DEBUT for a candlelit evening of music, stories and connection inside Greenwich’s iconic Queen’s House, a masterpiece of classical architecture, brought to life by extraordinary live performance.
Whether you're coming for a date night, a solo cultural treat, or a celebration with friends, this is an unforgettable experience.
What to expect
DEBUT’s Secret Concerts are a grassroots, musician-led series, created by musicians, for musicians and music lovers alike. Since 2017, we've hosted 120+ shows, welcomed 350+ exceptional performers, and built a loyal following for our warm, welcoming approach to classical performance.
With 500+ five-star reviews and a legacy as Airbnb’s No. 1 Music Experience, our concerts blend top-tier artistry with the relaxed, personal atmosphere of a house concert — something the big, branded series just can’t replicate.
What makes a DEBUT Secret Concert different
• Magnetic live performances, plus stories, insights and real connection with the artists
• An atmospheric, candlelit setting in Queen’s House — designed for royalty, brought to life by music
• Handpicked musicians from the UK’s leading orchestras and major stages
• A rare chance to chat with performers before the concert
• Pre-concert drinks reception on the riverside terrace
• A proudly musician-led charity, nurturing emerging talent through performance, mentoring & community
Whether you're a classical fan or completely new to it, you’ll leave feeling uplifted, connected, and creatively recharged.
