NSW Solos & Party Championships

The NSW Solos & Party Championships is one of two major events hosted by the BANSW.

Registered members of the BANSW choose events to enter depending on their age range. Usually, except for Open Brass events, all events are own-choice, with test selections released in February each year. However, for 2022, all events will be your own choice.

Individual solo instrument winners in the open grades can then progress and compete in the Open Brass and Concert Champion of Champions events. These events are held separately at the NSW State Band Championships in August.

In 2022, the NSW Solos & Party Championships will be held on the weekend of 25 & 26 June. The venue is the McCaskill Music Centre, Barker College in Hornsby, just a short walk from Waitara railway station. The closest school entrance to the McCaskill Music Centre is off Unwin Road.
