<p>The City of Chester Ladies Choir are celebrating 60 years of song with a concert featuring City of Chester Band.</p><p> </p><p>Tickets &pound;12 available from Chester Cathedral Box Office on 01244 500959 or www.chestercathedral.com </p>

<p>On Sunday 10 May City of Chester Band will be performing in Vale Park, New Brighton (post code CH45 1LZ) between 14:30 and 16:30. Vale Park is a sheltered glade beside the river Mersey.  Why not come aong and listen to the Band.</p><p>Rent a deck chair, and relax listening to our concert on the refurbished bandstand.</p><p>[No admission but there is a charge for hiring a deckchair and there is a raffle, held by the Friends of Vale Park, to defray expenses. </p>

City of Chester Band will be taking part in several of these contests, charging around Tameside and Saddleworth on a bus throughout the evening.  Which contests we enter on the night will depend upon the number of bands queuing to perform.  A long queue and it's back on the bus to the next village.  For spectators, the best plan is to park up in villages like Delph or Dobcross and watch bands as they come through during the evening.  A great community event.

The City of Chester Band will be taking part in a parade of giants.  Further details to follow.
