The final spot prize for Brass Band Week 2024 goes to Bearpark & Esh Colliery Band for their performance at Auckland Castle. Congratulations, you’ve won one year of free membership to Brass Bands England 🙌

Bearpark & Esh Colliery Band Mike, chair of BBE, said "This event jumps out at me as it seems to incorporate not just the Brass Band but a range of other experiences too. Broadening the offer to attract a wider audience demographic seems to me to be an excellent way of bringing new audiences into events...

Bearpark & Esh Colliery Band ...and for them to experience Brass Band performances perhaps for the first time. Hopefully they will become regular attendees at Brass band concerts in the future." Enjoy your year of free membership Bearpark & Esh Colliery Band 🥳
