A final call has been made for bands wishing to enter this year's Scottish Open and Challenge contests.

The Scottish Open, supported by Besson, and the Band Supplies Scottish Challenge contests take place on the weekend of the 27th/28th November at Perth Concert Hall.

The deadline for entry applications is 30th October.

Covid protocols

Because of the current COVID situation, it has been decided there will be a pre-draw in early November for both events. There will also be other protocols in place at both contests and all bands will be informed of these before the event.

Steven Mead and Paul Holland will be adjudicating both the Open and the Challenge events.
