    10 years on - we're blown away!
    January 2026 saw the 10th anniversary of Macclesfield Brass, with a special rehearsal to celebrate the occasion! As well as a cake to mark the event, we watched a compilation of images from our time together, starting out as a group of just 12 in Morton Hall.

    Since then we have trebled in number, learnt to play well over 100 pieces of music of various styles, acquired a uniform, performed around 100 times for audiences in and around Macclesfield, won the odd prize (!!!) ... and have had a thoroughly enjoyable time.

    During the course of 2026 we will mark our anniversary year with an ambitious schedule of performances and social events, and will look forward to our next decade!

    Tesco Stronger Starts in Macclesfield - we won!!
    A HUGE THANK YOU to everyone who voted for us in the Tesco Stronger Starts in Macclesfield stores this summer!

    With your help we won the first prize of £1,500!

    We are absolutely delighted and could not have done it without you all.
    This means that we will be able to buy more music, update and adapt some of our instruments to help our players and perform for you again next year at venues in and around the town in what will be our 10th Anniversary year.

    Thank you so much!
