The bands are back! 🎺

After a summer break for many of our bands, they are now all getting back into the rehearsal room, and with our Annual Festival Weekend now just over five weeks away, there’s plenty to be getting on with!

All eight of our bands will be performing during the weekend, so there’s lots of music being prepared across our whole organisation.

📅 9th - 11th October
📍 The Sykes Hall, Wantage Silver Band

We had such a fantastic weekend last year and we’re really looking forward to welcoming everyone back for the second Wantage Silver Band Annual Festival Weekend.

🎟️ Tickets are now available at www.wantageband.org/events We’ll be introducing the concert line up over the next few weeks - watch this space! 👀🎶
