We are 40!


We are 40!

Over the years, Irvine and Dreghorn Brass have become an integral part of the Irvine and North Ayrshire area. We’ve been serenading Marymass Queens & local crowds for years and years and many locals have been a part of the band over the years. To celebrate turning 40 we will be having a weekend of activities in late August.

40th Anniversary Concert

Irvine & Dreghorn Brass Band will be celebrating 40 years in Scottish banding this year. Our first public concert was in the summer of 1976 in the Magnum Theatre, Irvine and so, we are returning to the Magnum Theatre on Friday 26th August, 2016 to perform our Anniversary Concert. (Address: the Harbour, Irvine, KA12 8PP).

The concert starts at 7.30pm and tickets are £6 and £4 for concessions
