Singleton Park becomes the Bay of Naples for a night as the sixth BBC Proms in the Park from Swansea celebrates an evening of Italian music and Neapolitan song.
The BBC National Orchestra and Chorus of Wales, under conductor David Charles Abell, bring a festival of music to the city and link up with the Royal Albert Hall and Parks across the UK for the traditional Last Night celebrations. A Community Stage will host pre-concert performances and audience-participation singing, and fireworks will bring the evening to a climactic end.
