One of the city's biggest parks has announced its summer nights events with plans to open late to the public.

From today, July 14, Eaton Park Café, which is a sister cafe to The Bicycle Shop in St Benedicts Street, will stay open on Fridays and Saturdays until dusk.

A special summer menu will be on offer and the café has bought sets of games for people to borrow.

Rob Howe, café owner said: "It's good to be able to open up in the evening again, and we're looking forward to offering some great light meals such as Greek salad or a classic steak frites, enjoyed with a glass of wine or two."

On Saturday, July 22, the park will hold its first summer evening bandstand concert, with Taverham Band playing from 7pm to 9pm. 

Helen Mitchell, chair of Friends of Eaton Park, added: "We've noticed how well-used the park is in the evening and thought we’d try this new timing for a concert when it's sunny so the band can play in the golden hour of the day when the rotunda’s at its most beautiful."
