Junior England dance champions will be inviting thousands to dance a waltz with them again this year at Leeds Castle's Classical Concert.

Max and Katie Harrison, from Kingswood near Maidstone, were among the acts that took part in last year's event, including James and Ola Jordan, and have been invited back again for the event on Saturday, July 9.

They will be inviting the crowd to dance a waltz to the classic song Moon River.

The concert will be presented by Aled Jones and conducted by John Rigby. Field cannons, fireworks, a Spitfire display and plenty of picnics will be part of the evening, set to the soundtrack of much-loved classics such as the 1812 Overture performed by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.
