Finchley Nurseries

Sun, 1 Sep 2024
Performing outside the cafe at Finchley Nurseries is our favourite regular venue, and on this occasion it was a lovely hot day. We were admittedly a little jealous of the audience sitting in the shade of the garden umbrellas enjoying their teas!

Christmas charity concert at St John's Friern Barnet

Sat, 10 Dec 2022
Our programme of seasonal favourites for all the family was in support of Homeless Action in Barnet (HAB), with a family-friendly start time of 7pm. We entertained with well-known classics, music from the movies and, of course, Christmas hits. It was unfortunate that audience numbers were low due to cold weather and the England-France football match, but even then £350 was raised for Homeless Action in Barnet. We are grateful for the help of volunteers from HAB in running the front of house, refreshements and raffle.

Barnet Christmas Fayre - carols at St Johns Barnet

Finchley Nurseries performance

Sun, 4 Sep 2022
This year, we only had one performance at Finchley Nurseries. The weather was kind to us, and we played to a packed lawn of people enjoying their tea and cake outside the cafe. We always enjoy this venue surrounded by plants and a wide view, giving a restful and convivial atmosphere.

Sun, 26 Jun 2022
On a nice sunny day, Barnet Band enjoyed a large audience, and played 2 sessions to enthusiastic applause.

Hampstead Garden Suburb summer fair

We played this on the green in Central Square on a sunny day. The fair was very busy, with a dog show and Punch and Judy performances also going on. A lovely family affair.

RAF Hendon Museum pageant

Sat, 4 Jun 2022
As it was very windy, we played inside one of the hangars on a balcony overlooking the Sunderland aircraft - a very different acoustic.

Movies and Musicals concert, at St James Church

Sat, 26 Mar 2022
The first concert we've arranged for ourselves for many years, and we are very grateful to the helpers, front of house friends and family, and those providing the refreshments. We filled St James church to capacity, and were proud that our retiring collection raised £220 for the DEC Ukraine Appeal. We've heard that the audience really enjoyed the concert.
