Wristbands for this year’s event cost £10 for adults and £5 for children. Under 5’s are free but will need a band for entry. They can be obtained from the Abbey Cinema.
once again only 1 band from abingdon, abingdon music in the park is meant to be local bands
£10 seems a bit excessive. The last time we went it was only a fiver.
I love the bands, gets everyone in the party mood, up and dancing / joining in. Then the brass band brings it all crashing down. I wish the brass band was on first.
Had a really good time it’s party in the park not just Abingdon bands,I thought the 3 that preformed were good and well worth £10.But I do agree the brass band should be first.
