  The 2019 UniBrass Championships will be held at Bangor University

The organisers of the UniBrass Championship have announced that the 2019 event will be held across two venues at Bangor University on 2nd February.

The Trophy competition will be held in Theatr Bryn Terfel in Pontio, Bangor University's Arts & Innovation Centre, with the Shield event at the Hugh Owen Hall in the Management Centre.

Both venues are in close proximity to the university's Main Arts Building where the competitors will come together for the results ceremony and to socialise.

Excellent venues

UniBrass 2019 Chair Sam Hartharn-Evans told 4BR: "We're excited to be able to showcase the excellent venues that Bangor University has to offer.

We hope that by using Pontio as the centre of the contest we can make UniBrass 2019 an event for the whole community in Bangor."

Accommodation

He also confirmed to 4BR that the organisers will be able to offer audience members reduced rates on accommodation in partnership with the Management Centre on Friday 1st and Saturday 2nd February.

The Management Centre offers 54 rooms of 'Visit Wales' 4 star graded accommodation situated less than 200 meters from the Main Arts Building.
