The Abingdon Town Band had the honour of being invited back to Windsor Castle to perform on the Jubilee Garden Bandstand within the precincts of the Castle.

The Musical Director of the Band, Steve Rich, said “The Band were excited and honoured to be invited back to Windsor in the Diamond Jubilee year of HM The Queen and of course during the London 2012 Olympics.”

This was the Band’s third performance at the Castle after being invited to play there in 2010 when the Abingdon Town Band had the distinction of being the first non-military band ever to play in Windsor Castle

The Band has a very busy year of engagements this year including the MG celebrations at Blenheim Palace and the Royal County of Berkshire Agricultural Show at Newbury both in September.
