Harry Styles Opens Prize Draw for One-Off Orchestral Meltdown Show

Entries fund free arts access for young people at the Southbank Centre.

Overview

  • The Southbank Centre prize draw, which opened Wednesday, offers access to Styles’s 16 June orchestral concert at the 1,900-seat Royal Festival Hall.
  • Entries cost £20 for one, £40 for two or £60 for three, are limited to UK residents aged 18+, close at 12pm on 15 May, and winners are notified by 2 June.
  • All net proceeds from the concert and draw support youth programmes that the venue says give more than 25,000 young people each year free cultural experiences.
  • Styles will perform with the Jules Buckley Orchestra as Buckley creates new arrangements of his songs, building on the pair’s earlier collaborations.
  • The show sits within Styles’s Meltdown curation running 11–21 June, which features free and participatory events plus sets from Warpaint, Soulwax and Nilufer Yanya, with Styles serving as the festival’s 31st curator.
