It’s coming soon!!! Join the Dundas Concert Band at the Christmas tree lighting in Dundas on Friday, November 29th. The band will begin playing their holiday tunes just after 6:15 pm. Once everyone is in the holiday spirit, the tree lights will be turned on, and there will be a special visit from Santa Claus!
PLEASE NOTE: We were originally told that the tree lighting was Nov. 22nd. However, it has been changed, and is on the 29th. Sorry for any confusion this may have caused.
Once again, the Dundas Concert Band will be participating in the November 11th Remembrance Day Service at Gore Park. Come on out to remember those that fought for us. The service begins at 10:45 am.
This week, we celebrated a special birthday of one of our members. Congratulations, Rudy!

The Dundas Concert Band will once again be performing at the Cactus Parade on Thursday, August 15th. We will be at Eccles Auto Service, and will perform starting at 6:30 pm. We will then continue to play during the parade when there are no music bands, and then again once the parade is over.
Although the Dundas Concert Band Summer Series in the Park is finished, there is still another great band to listen to. On Tuesday, August 13, the Silver Swing Big Band will be performing at the Dundas Driving Park. They will start at 7:00pm. Several members from the DCB play with the Silver Swing Band. So bring your chair, and maybe a blanket, and listen to some Big Band music. It’s an earlier start time!
We are now finished our Concerts in the Park series. Thank you very much for coming to the park to listen and for your generous financial donations. Look for us at the Dundas Cactus Parade. We will be set up at Eccles Auto Service, and will play before, during and after the parade.
Tonight will be our last Concert in the Park Series. We hope the weather holds out for us. It is supposed to stop raining by 4pm. If it is cancelled due to the weather, we will post here. Otherwise, bring out a chair and we will see you at 7:30pm!
