Otley Brass Band will be holding a Grand Christmas Concert as the final fundraising event for the Community Development Project at Otley Methodist Church.

The band has said it hopes rebuilding work on the church, due to start next month, will be finished in time for the concert to be held there in December.

The concert will also feature performances from Wharfe Brass, the band’s feeder group, along with festive readings and vocal solos.

The concert will be held at either the Church Sanctuary or the Wesley Hall from 7.30pm on Saturday, December 11.

A band spokesman said: “If the concert has to take place in the Wesley Hall this will significantly reduce the audience capacity and we are therefore recommending that those wishing to attend this event obtain their tickets as soon as possible to cover for this eventuality.”

Tickets are available at £6 for adults and £3 for children.

To buy tickets send a cheque payable to Otley Methodist Church along with a self addressed envelope, for tickets to be returned, to A Grand Christmas Concert, c/o 76 The Whartons, Otley, LS21 2BS. Tickets may also be available on the door if any remain.
