Whit Friday has been said to be "the greatest free show on earth".

The Diggle Band Contest took place for the very first time on the 5th June 2009.  The aim of the organising committee was to make this new contest a family friendly occasion.

 

2012 sees the fourth year for Diggle Contest and we are once again looking forward to hosting many bands from all corners of the Brass band World.

2011 once again saw over 50 bands visiting us and enjoying a fast turnaround of about 40 minutes.

We hope you will enjoy using this site to find out about fundraising events, see photographs of previous year's events, and plan your visit to the 2012 contest on Friday June 1st.
