Sting is a legend in his own time -- musician, actor, activist and so much more.  Join us for a fun-filled summer weekend in London -- Sting performing al fresco at London's beautiful and historic Hyde Park is just one of the highlights of this fantastic rock and roll weekend.  Read on for details.

Thursday - July 26th 
Depart USA on an overnight flight to London

Friday - July 27th
Arrive London, R&R, club night out--London's calling!
Upon arrival in London, it's a short journey to our central London hotel.  Here you'll have some time to rest and relax or explore this vibrant central London location.  Our 4 star hotel is within walking distance of Covent Garden, Trafalgar Square, Big Ben, the Millennium Wheel and so much more! 

In the late afternoon, our guide, Jon will meet you in the lobby of your hotel for a drink and brief orientation, including a detailed listing of what's going on in London during your visit.  Then it's off for a night on the town!  Jon will have scouted high and low to figure out the coolest spot for this evening's club night out.

Saturday - July 28
Concert at Hyde Park-- Sting serenades us under the stars
The morning is at your leisure.  This afternoon Jon will be escorting the group to historic Hyde Park in the late afternoon, where we'll be seeing Sting and a variety of other artists (TBA). After a brief tour of the park's landmarks, our VIP tickets allow us entrance to the event at 4 PM.  Once inside, you will be free to move from your VIP seats to the exclusive hospitality tent.  Starting at 8PM, Sting serenades us under the stars!  Post show, those who are still up for more fun can stop in to our hotel bar for a nightcap (they'll stay open for us!).

Sunday - July 29
Afternoon Walk, Rock & Roll tour--London's brilliant parade
Today, the morning is yours to rest and recuperate from all the fun you've had, before this afternoons' "Walk, Rock & Roll" tour.  Whether this is your first time to London or your hundred and first, you will be amazed by our guide Jon's  expertise of rock history and London itself.  Jon created the original London rock & roll walk and for this trip has included a special emphasis on Sting and the Police.   This should be an incredible tour since London is so ripe with Sting/Police history.  Jon is a native Londoner, music journalist, and rock historian who has been described by the West End Extra as a "font of amazing facts and obscure trivialities."  He's quite a guy and most importantly he's a true music fan.

Jon will also give you an extensive array of choices for your evening activities--you may even entice him to join you!
