Our "listening yard" concerts used to be held in our backyard in Hermitage, Tennessee on an open air patio with flowers behind the performer(s). Thus the name "Garden Party Concerts." We are now located in Clayton, North Carolina (near Raleigh) and resumed our house concert series in October of 2021 after the Covid-19 pandemic unfortunately canceled our full 2020 season. Our events are now held in our living room, where we limit seating to a maximum of 30-40 attendees. We serve everyone a free dinner about 45 minutes prior to the show, hold the performance for about two hours (including the intermission) and wrap everything up about three hours after our start time. So our events run no later than 8 - 8:30 pm.
Our events are NOT public and therefore admission to our shows is by invitation only. If you'd like to attend you must reserve your space(s) by replying to one of the emails we send out to those on our list and receiving a reply confirmation from us that you're on the reservation list. In that reply you'll be given our address and full details regarding parking, things you'll need to bring, the dinner menu for the show you are attending, etc.
Capacity is very limited, so once the reservation "window" opens for a show you'd like to attend, the sooner you reply to reserve your space the better your chances that we'll still have room for you on our reservation list.
