Bandstand concerts
The 2010 programme is now available.
In July 1997 after years of fund raising and a National Lottery Grant for £63,500, the Bandstand,which was designed by Peter Fenton, a well known local architect, was opened. The Bandstand also boasts decorative security screens made by local wrought ironsmith James Godbold who has a forge in the village of Egton, North Yorkshire. Every year free band concerts are held between May and September. Volunteers from the Saltburn 500 Club work hard to raise money to maintain the bandstand and organise the concerts with support from Redcar and Cleveland Borough Council and Saltburn, Marske and New Marske Parish Council.

The 13th season of Saltburn Bandstand summer concerts kicks-off on Sunday May 2nd from 2.30pm-4pm with a performance by Cleveland Concert Band. The Saltburn concerts, which were recently named runners-up in the "best event" category of the 2008 Culture Awards, run by The Journal, are held in the Emmanuel Church if the weather is bad.

Can you help?
A license is now required to hold concerts at the bandstand. A condition of this licence is that two or three people with appropriate Health and Safety training will be required to act as stewards at every concert. This is in case there is an emergency and the Bandstand needs to be evacuated. Will anyone with the appropriate qualification act as a steward at the concerts? Or is there anyone willing to undergo training? Please contact 01287 624046 if you can help. Thank you.
