The BBC Proms is pleased to confirm that the Royal Albert Hall has restored electrical power and today's concerts will go ahead as planned.
Last night's concert (Sunday) was cancelled following a loss of electrical power at the hall after a minor fire.
The Philadelphia Orchestra, conducted by Christoph Eschenbach, perform the fifth symphonies of Beethoven and Tchaikovsky at 7.00pm today, and the Camerata Salzburg and Leonidas Kavakos perform works by Mozart and Haydn in a Late Night Prom at 10.00pm.
A full refund of ticket money will be made to all who purchased tickets for Prom 66 which had been due to take place on Sunday.
Those who purchased tickets from the Royal Albert Hall by telephone or online need take no action. They will be refunded within seven days.
Those who bought tickets with cash from the Box Office are asked to send the tickets to the Royal Albert Hall.
