Join Kippax Band at Temple Newsam Estate for a free concert of brass band favourites from 2.30pm-4.30pm.
Kippax Band has a long and proud history in brass banding dating back to the early 1800’s. In fact, Band records dating back to 1933 state ‘Band decided to have tea to commemorate the Band as the oldest brass band in England on January 13th 1934. This year makes 120 years as a band and 100 years as an all-brass Band’.
It’s time to dig out the deck chairs and take to the great outdoors for a delightful dose of music al fresco. This year’s Summer Bands series includes over 100 concerts in parks across Leeds from Golden Acre Park and Roundhay Park to Pudsey Park, New Wortley Recreation Ground and Alwoodley Village Green. Once again Leeds parks will be filled with music provided free of charge* from some of the region’s finest talent in these popular events.
Every Sunday afternoon until September, local Big Bands, Swing, Brass, Jazz, Concert, and the celebratory sounds of Jewish Klezmer bands will perform afternoon concerts in the open air from 2.30pm to 4.30pm.
