The Ireland Colliery Chesterfield Band is a proud part of the town’s musical life – and their performances are well worth catching.

Brass music isn’t just for grand occasions. When the ICCB takes to the stage, whether at a summer park or a festive concert hall, they fill the space with rich sound, energy, and heart.

Formed in 1981, the band began with a group of passionate musicians linked to Chesterfield’s mining past. Decades later, they’re still going strong – with players of all ages coming together to share their talent and love of music. It’s not just a performance; it’s a tradition that’s evolved with the community.

See them live this year

Throughout the year, the band performs at local events, seasonal concerts and open-air venues. You might hear them on a sunny afternoon in the park or find yourself tapping along at a winter celebration.

Some of this year’s highlights include:

• Relaxed summer performances in parks and public spaces

• Appearances at community festivals and galas across the borough

• Summer and Christmas concerts to round off the year with warmth and music
