Mission Statement

To support, develop and promote Brass Bands across Wales.

Welcome to the Brass Bands Wales website – a one-stop point of reference for all Welsh-based brass bands, players, administrators and enthusiasts, but also plenty for visitors from outside of Wales to enjoy as well.

The website is updated regularly to provide you with information and guidance, resources, news and events, opportunities to network and collaborate with other members and stakeholders and much, much more.

As our Mission Statement clearly spells out, Brass Bands Wales’ aim is to engage with as many relevant organisations and individuals, to represent the movement at all levels, in order to consolidate and grow, therefore ensuring that we and future generations are able to enjoy this enjoyable and rewarding pastime for many years to come.

We would love to have you on board. Register with Brass Bands Wales today!
