Epsom Band celebrates centenary in 2010

The Epsom and Ewell Silver Band was formed in 1910 and will therefore reach the milestone of 100 years’ existence this year.

To mark this achievement, we have decided to put on a special concert in the summer, on the 24th of July. We will invite ex-players and conductors from years gone by to come and celebrate with us and we are delighted that David Thornton, principal euphonium of Black Dyke Band, has agreed to come and perform some solo pieces.

This will take place at Bourne Hall in Ewell and will hopefully coincide with other community groups’ celebrations to form a huge community festival.

We really hope that this event will bring as many people together as possible. Our audience and supporters have been an important part of band life over the last hundred years and this concert is as much for you as it is for us.

Tickets are on sale now - please phone our general contact number (07908 855393) for more details.

Thank you for visiting our website. Please check back soon and hopefully it will be finished and wonderful!
