2020
UPDATE
Our Bands will continue to advertise events on the diary, however, with the present restrictions the chances are, whilst many events are still listed, they are destined not to take place and they will be removed as the year progresses, but we'll continue to list them until they are cancelled by the organisers or the dates expire.
Visitors to our site may have read on social media and the like of investiations into and viewpoints on the decision for: Choirs, brass bands, wind bands and the like being able to rehearse or perform at present. Shipston Town Bands Committee obviously take their guidance from Brass Bands England who will issue further guidance as central government decides it is safe to do so, therefore for the foreseeable future we shall not unfortunately rehearse or perform until guidance suggests it is safe to do so.
Shipston Town Band and Stour Concert Brass would like to take this opportunity to say thank you to our many supporters and organisations that have engaged us in the past and hope that we can once again enjoy meeting our many audiences and band members in the near future.
We sincerely hope this message finds you all well and staying safe in this difficult and distressing time.
