Description

The Hangleton Band is an active, modern, brass band based in Hangleton, in the city of Brighton and Hove, in Sussex, UK.

We have both an active Senior and Youth Band and take our membership from a wide cross section of the local community.

There are currently around 80 members, some of whom play in both bands, with a group of young learners constantly feeding into the Youth Band, which alone has 50 members.
We have charitable status and operate as a single entity with all proceeds from fundraising, concerts and subscriptions being spent on the band, rather than being targeted at any individuals or sections. We have a large repertoire of music with anything from Mozart to Miller to Mercury!

We play a range of concerts over the year for our own stalwart supporters, and for different audiences in the immediate locality and around the county. The band (Senior, Youth or Ten Piece) is available to hire for venues such as bandstands, festivals, fayres and parties.

The bands currently rehearse on Friday evenings at Hangleton Junior School Hall, Northease Drive, Hove. The Youth Band rehearses from 6pm - 7.30pm & the Senior Band meets from 7.45pm - 9.45pm.

Visit Horsham Park for its wide open spaces, tranquil Sensory Garden and Human Nature Garden, buzzing sports clubs and activity centres, and its excellent children’s play area.

Perfect for picnics, barbecues and feeding the ducks, Horsham Park is the best place in town to relax on a sunny afternoon. Head for the Conservatory Café when you fancy an ice cream, and enjoy live music from the bandstand.

Horsham Park is open all day every day. Admission is free.

There are three car parks at Horsham Park: North Parade, Hurst Road (Pavilions Leisure Centre) and North Street. These are shown on the map above.

Horsham Park is also an easy walk from Horsham town centre car parks.

The Conservatory Café by the Podium and picnic benches serves hot and cold food and drinks and has toilets.

There is a Changing Places fully accessible toilet in the Pavilions in the Park leisure centre.
Horsham Park has two beautiful landscapes gardens to explore. Park House Garden is a tranquil sensory garden designed with the disabled and visually impaired in mind. The Human Nature Garden is a lovely educational garden illustrating the link between plants and people in their everyday lives. The Garden was created by Horsham in Bloom and funded by the Big Lottery.

There are lots of picnic benches beside the Podium, perfectly positioned to enjoy the live music and children's entertainment performances.

Barbecues are permitted in Horsham Park and there is plenty of space to spread out. Please ensure your barbecue is not placed directly on the grass, to avoid scorching, and that all food and other rubbish is cleared away afterwards. Please also ensure that the barbecue has cooled before placing it in the bins or removing from site.
