And they’re off - to the holy grail of banding (in my humble opinion) The Whit Friday Marches. Wellington (Telford) Brass Band dressed up and ready to hit Saddleworth with Village People outfits - they’ll go down a storm for sure. And playing one of my favourites, “The Cossack March” at each village green or square. Wish I was there guys, have a great day.

We hope you are enjoying your bank holiday weekend. We are pleased to confirm that we have an exciting line up of 11 bands for our virtual festival in July which we will announce shortly alongside the timings. We look forward to showcasing them and bringing some wonderful brass band sounds straight to your living room.

Calling all of our bands and supporters!

We are pleased to announce that whilst we are not able to provide a live festival this year, we will be having our own virtual festival on Saturday, 11 July. We will be showcasing our bands with short videos of them performing, aiming to bring you a taste of the festival in your own front room.

All of our bands will be receiving an email, but if you are a part of a band that has played at our festival at any time and are interested in taking part, please get in touch.
