Kirbymoorside Brass Band
Kirkbymoorside, or Kirkby as it is known locally, is situated at the southern foothills of the North Yorks Moors. It is 7 miles from Pickering and 6 miles from Helmsley. Kirkby has had a band since at least 1815 and we have the minutes book from 1890 until today. The bands first contest win was the Kirkbymoorside poultry and industrial show contest of 1886. Our band room was built in 1976 on land kindly donated by James Holt who lives in Kirkby. It is a purpose built building and is used for all band activities including practices which are three or four times a week. We currently have a Senior Band, Junior Band, Learner Band, Community Band and a Beginner Band. Over 90 musicians in all.

Please note the annual stewards and officials meeting will be held on the 8th September 2017 in the Town Hall, Stokesley. The purpose of this 'informal pre show gathering' is for all stewards, volunteers and officials of the show to come together and discuss all issues relating to show day activities, health and safety, address any outstanding matters from previous years, provide an opportunity to ask show management and council any questions or queries. We also enjoy a short presentation /slide show with a little bit of show history and up to date activities, the evening is closed with a finger buffet supper and the opportunity to catch up with old friends and colleagues.
