Book Us
Thank you for your interest in booking the Band. We are always busy so please give us as much notice as possible of your event. We are often booked over a year ahead.
In Bournemouth Youth Marching Band we play brass and woodwind instruments together with a corps of drums. We have a multi functional capability and undertake a wide range of performances including concerts, carnivals, arena displays, parades and ceremonials. We are the largest marching band in the area.

Anything else that we may need to know
We have to charge a fee for our performances to help cover our costs such as instruments, uniforms, hall rental for rehearsals, music, travel, insurance and repairs. eg a complete uniform costs over £500 and a trumpet £700. The Band will also expect the organiser to meet the costs of transportation.
We will check our availability and transport cost if applicable and get back to you with a quotation as soon as possible.
For outdoor events, in the case of bad weather, the Band have to reserve the right to cancel their appearance. This is so that we avoid possible damage to expensive instruments, uniforms and kit.
