Residents and visitors can enjoy a summer of free musical performances as Coventry City Council’s Bands in the Parks events return next month.
Ten concerts will be held on Sundays between June and September across the city’s parks, with the first one taking place on Sunday 1 June at War Memorial Park.
The Brass Band of Central England (formerly known as the Jaguar Land Rover Band) will be kicking off the series of events, with many other bands from across the West Midlands taking part.
All concerts will take place from 2pm to 3.30pm on a Sunday afternoon and are a relaxing, family-friendly, musical experience for all ages.
The final event will take place in the historic Caludon Castle park held in collaboration with the Heritage Open Days taking place across the city and country in September.
Councillor Abdul Salam Khan, Coventry City Council’s Deputy Leader and Cabinet Member for Parks said: “I’m always pleased to be able to welcome back this much-loved series of mini concerts for people to get out into the fresh air and listen to some great music.
“Bands in the Park always welcomes the arrival of summer and what better way is there to spend an afternoon than in one of our stunning parks enjoying some fabulous entertainment?
“I hope everyone enjoys this great series of free events and continue to enjoy all our lovely parks across the city.”
Bands in the Park concerts always cover a wide variety of musical styles and bands to entertain crowds and create a fun atmosphere for people to enjoy.
Join us and make a Sunday afternoon that bit more special!
