About the event
This event is not organised by Poynton Brass Band.
Once one of the North West’s most popular brass band events, the contest is back after a 13‑year break and will take place at Marine Hall on Sunday 26 April 2026.
This year’s event features an own‑choice test‑piece format plus an exciting bonus: a qualification link to the 2027 British Open Spring Festival.
Run in partnership with Red Admiral Music Academy and Leyland Band, the return of this iconic contest builds on their reputation for high‑quality, well‑loved events.
