Denshaw Whit Friday Band Contest 2025

The Denshaw Whit Friday Band Contest, one of the highlights on the community calendar, is taking place on June the 13th.

It costs about £5000 to put the Contest on, primarily going towards prize money, stewards, insurance, first aid and lighting.

We would hope over 50 bands will play from 4pm and could include world class bands from around the country and world.

The Contest is reliant on sponsorship, advertising and sales of the magazine and the generosity of individual donations - including the £640 donation from our previous GoFundMe - THANK YOU!

As we move ever closer to a cashless society we realise that many would find it easier to donate online rather than scour their pockets for change. To enable this The Committee have set up a GoFundMe page which is an easy and secure way on giving on line. We hope that this will enable you to donate, watch funds grow – hopefully with your help – towards our target, and in due course see some photos too!

Please pass on information about this page to anyone interested in supporting us – even family and friends who no longer live in Denshaw and who might want to support this event which has been an important part of our Village for many years. Should you encounter any problems using this site, cash donations can be made to our Treasurer, address on our website www.denshawcontest.co.uk
