About Us

Established in 1822, the Royal Buckley Town Band is a friendly community brass band based in Buckley, Flintshire. 

In response to the Coronavirus pandemic, all our activities stopped for nearly two years, including rehearsals, concerts, contests, other group activity & individual lessons.


We are now looking forward to celebrating our Bicentenary year in style as we return to rehearsals and engagements.

Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, Royal Buckley faced some of the most challenging times ever encountered in our 200 year history.

From March 2020 to December 2021, every event was cancelled & we need to raise funds, to cover the cost of maintenance & utilities for our band room, to ensure we are able to rehearse & perform once more.
