Eastbourne Bandstand

A very pleasant evening with he LGB Brass band playing on the bandstand and finishing off with spectacular fireworks at the end of the 1812 concerto. Restrooms are nearby.

The Bandstand is potentially a great visitor attraction wonderful location of much historic interest and as advertised " The most visited bandstand in the UK " but what could also be said of the bandstand the most badly maintained bandstand in the UK sorely in need of some TLC, it must come to visitors as a shock peeling paint cracked concrete bodged repairs not something to be proud off.
Just a small amount of money could improve the appearance and give a vast improvement to the visitor experience and return to greatness one of Eastbourne's treasures.

Have enjoyed a couple of the 1812 Firework Nights and attended a Songs of Praise recording. Great acoustics and environment to enjoy the music. Quite a variety of different style events and very reasonably priced. Will definitely attend more events. Weather has been nice each time so not sure what it's like with inclement weather.

These summer concerts are vey popular and offer a wide variety of music styles. Wednesday evenings the concert finishes with the1812 overture and an excellent fireworks display.
There are lots of "tribute" concerts as well and therefore attracts a wide range of audiences.
Prior to concerts commencing, large screens are put up all around the external area of the bandstand as large crowds used to gather for a " freeby" and watch from the pavement area.

We went on Saturday 12/7/2017 to watch a Rod Stewart Tribute act. Just to say he was excellent, he had the crowd in his hands, he sings and moves just like the real man himself. For only £7.75 I would have to say is excellent value for money for an hour and a half performance. The sound was great make sure you get there early to sit on the ground level seats the best, not to say that the balcony seats aren't great, but they are open to the elements if the weather is not very good. There is also a bar for drinks and snacks. Would highly recommend this venue if you are stuck for something to do one evening. The toilets are just outside the venue 20p a time.

A British summer is not complete without a visit to the iconic Eastbourne Bandstand. Having played there two or three times this year, I was delighted to be in the audience twice last weekend, once on Friday night to see the excellent Gatsby's Jukebox, and again on Sunday afternoon to rest my weary legs and soak up the traditional atmosphere of a great British band - The Royal Corps of Transport Association Concert Band - on one of the best-loved seafronts in the country. For a paltry £3.50 (Sunday afternoon) you can sit in the sun or the shade, upstairs or below decks, and either relax and be entertained, or get up and groove about, as the mood takes you. It's one of those rare places where anything goes, and all are welcomed. And the staff seem to be having a much fun as the crowd.

Excellent evening with family - danced the night away!!
Relaxed, cheap, fun night out. Easy to buy tickets, collect at the door on the night and great to be on the seafront for a stroll on the promenade afterwards or pop into town for a meal.

Finally got around to going to one of the tribute shows, Sounds of Simon (and Garfunkel), did not disappoint. Excellent renditions of all my favourite songs and more, top notch band from Leicester. Made sure I was wrapped up warm as the temperature drops quickly when the sun goes down, especially sitting in the shade. We heard the Fleetwood Mac tribute a couple of weeks ago whilst sitting on the beach, still sounded good but the acoustics inside are much better, punchier, better bass, no echo.
Got a Friends of the Bandstand card now, 10% off all the shows and discount at the bar (and at the Buccaneer), and it lasts for 3 years! All for a fiver, perfect Christmas present!
Now looking forward to one of the ABBA shows.

Absolutely love this place. We are now officially friends of Eastbourne Bandstand. We have been to several shows here now and it never fails to dissapoint. Well priced tickets for good quality shows. (Discounted tickets and drinks if you become a Friend. Also cheap). A very pleasing evening out.
A lot of it is open air with some shelter so may get chilly in the evening or check for rain.
Licensed bar available on site.

We often visit the shows during the summer. We normally take a disabled adult who really enjoys the shows. They often join in, especially if a rock band takes part. It can be busy, but offers a safe environment. A good fun evening out.
