  If you are a qualifying success this weekend then you need to contact rooms4groups on Monday morning

The travel and accommodation specialists rooms4groups has sent their best wishes to all the competing bands at this year's series of Regional Championship events — starting at the Midlands and the North West of England this weekend.

Exciting

They told 4BR: "It's always exciting to see which bands will be competing at the National Finals later this year, some who return many times and some for the very first time. It's why this is such a fantastic series of contests.

We are also delighted to be able to offer our expertise and years of experience to help all the qualifying bands with their hotel and rehearsal requirements, and we have several hotels pre-booked and ready to go with exclusive deals specially negotiated for the National Final weekends.

Best wishes

They added: "We would like to wish all the bands competing at the Midlands and North West Regional Championships the very best of luck for this weekend!"

The team at Rooms4groups HQ will be ready and waiting on Monday morning to make qualification success hassle free for London and Cheltenham.
