Ladner Bandfest

Are you looking for free fun for the whole family? Are you interested in music? Are you hiking or biking in Delta, and looking for a break? Are you visiting the lower mainland and looking for some local colour? Then you may be interested in the Ladner Bandfest taking place at Memorial Park -5010 47 Avenue, Delta. Starting back in 2005, Delta Music Makers has hosted some 16+- adult community bands from 11am- 5.30 pm on the first weekend in June; this year the 3rd and 4th. Over the past few years, the highlight has been the Naden Band of the Royal Canadian Navy from Victoria, expected to close out Sunday afternoon. Musical types and genres are not restricted: expect to hear marches, Broadway, light classical, light jazz, and some funky Latin rhythms. Admission is FREE (but, donations to help defray costs will not be ignored). Parking is FREE, and located just to the south, with further parking available five minutes walking distance away at the high school. (Close to bus routes, too!) Some food service will be available through TOOB, washrooms are available close by. Children getting antsy? There’s a whole park next door! But, DO bring your own chair – there is some seating, but it’s limited. Please join us 3&4 June at Memorial Park in Delta for some great music!
