Albert Hall
  Tickets go on sale from June 17th

Kapitol Promotions has announced that tickets for the Championship Section Final of the National Championships of Great Britain will go on sale on 17th June (9.00am).

The event will take place at the Royal Albert Hall on Saturday 2nd October, part of the iconic venue's 150th anniversary year celebration.

20 bands will battle it out to become the National Champion Band of Great Britain 2021.

Excited

Subject to the next stage of the government's roadmap going ahead as planned, the Hall will re-open to the public with full capacity from 6th July. Aside from staging three 1,000-capacity events in December, the venue has been closed to audiences since 17th March 2020.

Craig Hassall, Chief Executive of the Royal Albert Hall, said: "This has been the toughest period in the Hall's 150-year history — and not how we ever imagined marking this remarkable milestone.

But we are so excited about getting back to doing what we do best, and can't wait to welcome audiences to the Hall to help us celebrate this anniversary in style."
