Ticket price savings for National Youth Championships

If you book your tickets on-line you can save hassle and money for a packed day of brilliant entertainment in Birmingham.

National Youth Championships
  The National Youth Championships take place in Birmingham on Saturday 28th March

If you are planning to go to the National Youth Brass Championships this year, then make sure you take advantage of booking your tickets in advance of the event at King Edward's School in Birmingham on Saturday 28th March.

Record entry

There is a record entry of 42 ensembles for you to enjoy when you get there, so don't leave yourself worrying about last minute change in your pocket or racing to get into the hall on time, and just relax knowing that your ticket has been booked — and you have saved yourself some money!

That means a packed day of musical entertainment with the return of the non-competitive Besson Prodige Showcase Section and the introduction of the new Challenge Section. There is also the ABRSM Performance Section and the blue-riband Yamaha Championship Section.

Advance tickets

Advance tickets offer the best value, with adult tickets priced at £13 compared to £16 on the door. Tickets for U18s are £5, while children under 5 go free.
