Euro drop-in for Tredegar

Welsh Champion holds open drop-in rehearsal this Sunday ahead of their Malmo challenge.

Tredegar
  You can drop in at any time during the rehearsal day

Welsh Champion Tredegar will be holding an open 'drop-in' European rehearsal on Sunday 30th April.

It will give supporters and brass band lovers a chance to hear the band work in detail on the set-test 'Aurora' by Joel Thoor Engstrom, as well as their own-choice work ahead of their trip to Malmo.

Drop-in

People can drop in at any time from 10.00am to 3.00pm at the bandhall on Gelli Road in Tredegar (NP22 3RD).

MD Ian Porthouse told 4BR: "Preparations for the contest have been going really well and we would like to be able to showcase the detail of what we are doing, so just pop in!"
