Christmas Carolling 2023 - live music on the streets of Hamilton raising funds for Hamilton brass bands

Hamilton City Brass along with Hamilton Auxiliary Brass are bringing the joy of Christmas music to the streets of Hamilton. The festive spirit is alive in Hamilton with the warm and joyful sounds of brass musicians playing Christmas carols and popular tunes heard throughout neighbourhoods around town. Keep an eye and an ear out for our Christmas band as we bring festive cheer to Hamilton’s communities.

We currently have 72 members aged 8 to 83 years, across our bands - each with varied backgrounds, ethnicities, ages, professions, and family situations. Our organisation brings together people and families from all walks of life, all joining in to participate in the joy of making music. We know that playing music in a group fosters the ability to work and collaborate with others, give and receive constructive feedback and builds on crucial social skills.
