Music at the Museum 2026: Hall Royd Band
Join us for another concert in the Music at the Museum 2026 season as we continue this year’s programme at Cliffe Castle, running alongside our events at Bradford Industrial Museum.
This performance features Hall Royd Band, a long‑established community brass band from Shipley with a proud history stretching back more than eighty years. The band began at Northcliffe Church, where local players first came together, and although those roots remain important, today’s members come from all walks of life and from across the wider community.
Hall Royd Band continues to champion the tradition of brass band music in West Yorkshire, bringing together experienced players and newer musicians in a welcoming, supportive environment. Their performances celebrate the warmth, heritage and unmistakable sound of a true community brass band.
We’re delighted to welcome them to Cliffe Castle for an afternoon of live music in the museum.
