The 57th Cornish Championships are to be held at the Hall for Cornwall in Truro on Saturday 29th September. Unfortunately however, as the event was oversubscribed you will not be able to hear Pendeen Silver Band on the day.

The day will commence at 10.00am with 14 bands battling it out for the proud title of Cornish Champions, whilst later, the all girl Wonderbrass and Black Dyke can he heard in concert.

The championships will see bands compete from ungraded and youth bands up to Championship level, all trying to catch the ear of respected adjudicator, Derek Greenwood, who will be leading the girls in their short performance before the announcement of the results.
