  BBC - Proms - The Last Night
The Last Night of the Proms is one of the most popular classical music concerts in the world, watched and listened to by an audience of many millions around the globe.
While it lives up to its reputation of a fun Last Night party celebrating British tradition, it equally encapsulates the spirit of the Proms, with leading international artists and an all-embracing programme, introducing new works alongside much-loved classics and bringing together the different themes of the season.
Proms in the Park now takes the Last Night party to Belfast, Swansea, Manchester and Glasgow as well as London, reflecting the increased interest in the Proms from around the UK.

 The Proms - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Proms (also more formally known as The BBC Proms, or The Sir Henry Wood Promenade Concerts presented by the BBC) is an eight-week summer season of daily orchestral classical music concerts held annually in Central London, predominantly in the Royal Albert Hall in South Kensington.
Promming now refers to the use of the standing areas inside the hall (the arena and gallery) for which ticket prices are much lower than for the reserved seating.
Slatkin's first Last Night was in 2001, just days after 9/11 attacks: it was more restrained than normal.

 Amazon.com: The Last Night of the Proms: DVD: Andrew Davis,Hilary Hahn,Jane Eaglen   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
This is the Last Night of the Proms concert conducted by Sir Andrew Davis.
The music on this DVD is a bit British oriented, which is a norm for the Last Night, I guess.
But I'd still recommend this disc to anyone who would like to sample the excitement of the Last Night, but could never be there yet.
