Young musicians from across Darlington and Durham will once again be joining forces to perform ‘Our Big Gig’ next month (July).
Organised by Darlington Music Hub, Durham Music Service and Darlington Borough Council’s events team, the ‘Our Big Gig’ has become a popular annual event which attracts large crowds of music lovers.
The free concert will be held at the South Park Bandstand in Darlington, 1-4pm on Sunday 3 July. All are welcome.
The performance starts with the South Regional Wind Band at 1pm, followed by Darlington District Wind Band at 2pm; Darlington Little Big Band at 2.45pm and finally Durham County Youth Big Band at 3.15pm.
Councillor Nick Wallis, Darlington Borough Council’s Cabinet member for leisure said:
“Our Big Gig offers a great opportunity for our young musicians to showcase their talents and provides a very enjoyable afternoon’s entertainment.
“It’s proved to be a very popular event in our summer programme and while some seating will be available, if the weather is nice they are usually taken quickly so people may want to bring along their own seats and rugs just in case.”
