Additional booking notes
603 Brass Band is able to perform in a variety of settings including indoor venues, outdoor festivals, parades, breweries, weddings, private events, and roaming street-style performances. Performance setup requirements vary depending on the size and style of the event. For stationary performances, the band typically requires a flat performance area large enough to comfortably accommodate the selected ensemble configuration and access to standard power outlets if sound reinforcement is needed. For larger venues and outdoor events, professional PA support is preferred, though the band can provide sound equipment for an additional fee when arranged in advance.
For roaming or parade-style performances, the band is fully mobile and can perform acoustically without staging or power requirements. Clients should provide clear information regarding performance location, parking/loading access, weather contingencies for outdoor events, and any venue-specific restrictions ahead of time. Lighting requirements are generally minimal for daytime or casual performances, though appropriate stage lighting is appreciated for evening concerts and ticketed events. The band is flexible and happy to work with venues, planners, and production teams to ensure performances fit the needs and atmosphere of each event.
