Are you interested in joining a community concert band but want to see what it is like?
Come along to one of our open rehearsals. You can bring your instrument and sit in with the band, or sit to the side and observe if you prefer. No need to book, just turn up.
All ages welcome, but children under 14 should be accompanied by a parent.
Choose the band to suit your level.
