The huge demand for tickets for the 164th British Open Championship, that has seen all seats in the Stalls, Choir, Circle and Upper Circle areas be taken up, has resulted in the only ones remaining being a rapidly decreasing number in the Grand Tier for the contest on Saturday 10th September at Symphony Hall, Birmingham.

Ingredients

As a British Open spokesperson told 4BR just a fortnight ago; "The ingredients of an exceptional line-up of competitors performing a wonderful test-piece by Peter Graham in one of the finest concert halls in the world, is an immense attraction to brass band lovers all over the globe."

Triumph of Time

Grimethorpe Colliery Band will defend its title on 'The Triumph of Time', against a field of rivals that this year also includes Brass Band Willebroek from Belgium and the New Zealander champion Wellington Brass.
