Established April 2012 The Marching Band of St. Gregory's was started with a small group of youngsters and several Instructors willing to teach them music.
Over ten years later we are an established traditional marching band with experience in leading carnivals, performing at community events, entertaining in residential homes and several fund raisers.
We have built up a band that is as close and supportive as I have ever know, and we want to make the band family larger, so we are continually recruiting.
If you are a little interested, just send us a message, one of our friendly team will be in touch to answer any of your questions.. We understand banding isn't for everyone, but until you try it, you will never know.
Over the past few years we have experienced so much. Whether it be the nostalgia of going to watch the Birmingham Tattoo, or the pride of being on Parade, the adrenaline of competing or the team building of staying aboard a war ship for a weekend. Even thorughout covid we were in touch with each other, making sure everyone weas ok and still doing activities to keep the group tight.
The experiences of being in a Youth Marching Band is far more than learning to play a musical instrument.
It's a way of life.
Award Winning band
We were awarded the Central England Prestige award for Community Music Initiative of the Year in May 2024, for which we are very proud. It's nice for our volunteers to get recognised for the fantastic work they do for our members.
