Concert at the Kings is an annual concert which takes place in the field to the rear of the Kings Arms pub in All Cannings near Devizes in Wiltshire, England.[1]
Usually held in May, it is a charitable fundraiser for cancer charities and to date it has raised over £170,000 for Macmillan Cancer Support, Above And Beyond, and Hope For Tomorrow among many others.[2]
The first concert took place in 2012, and since its inception acts such as 10cc, The Boomtown Rats, Squeeze, SAS Band, Steve Harley, Sweet and Los Pacaminos have performed at the Kings Arms. 2016 saw Marmalade, Big Country, 10cc, Suzy Quatro and the SAS Band take to the stage.[3]
Concert founders John Callis and Andy Scott are cancer survivors, and Concert at the Kings is their way of helping cancer victims across South West England to get the support they deserve. The 2018 concert raised money for Salisbury District Hospital's STARS appeal, in particular the Pembroke Unit which is the specialist treatment centre for people with cancer and blood diseases from across south Wiltshire, north and east Dorset and west Hampshire.
The final Concert at the Kings took place in 2021.[4]
