West of England Bandsmen's Festival

[Admin]

2016 Contest - Saturday June 18th Bugle Cornwall
A comprehensive prize list is on offer, full details of which are given in our annual Schedule.



Over the lifespan of the Festival an unrivaled range of trophies have been donated, and are now second to none. There are more than forty trophies competed for each year.



Pride of place goes to the Royal Trophy which is awarded to the Championship Section winners. It was presented to the Festival in 1913, by the late Duke of Windsor, then Prince of Wales and Duke of Cornwall, and to this day is the only trophy with a royal connection in the brass band world.
