Bolsover Festival of Brass
The Bolsover Festival of Brass Entertainment Championships have announced a revised timetable of draws. The event will be held on Sunday 3rd October at the new venue of Shirebrook Academy in Bolsover District.
The revised pre-draw has been made (listed below) and the organisers have asked bands to inform them of any changes prior to their appearance that they feel may they would like assistance and advice with. Bands will be able to give performances of 20 minutes included in a 30 minute 'turnaround slot' of half an hour to ensure that the event can run to time with their assistance.
The organisers have announced that there will be no registration requirements for the event. Up to 32 players can take to the stage, although it is hoped that the supportive initiative is implemented by bands in the spirit of friendly competition inclusion rather than competitive advantage. Bands will be notified of further changes and contest developments over the coming weeks as and when they are made.
The event will be livestream broadcasted. Tickets to enjoy the event at Shirebrook Academy are priced at £10.00 and £8.00 on the day.
