Enderby Band is promoted to the Senior Cup at the 2026 Spring Festival!

16 Jan 2026

Enderby Band loves the Spring Festival contest, and for the last 3 years has enjoyed the trip up to Blackpool to compete in the Senior Trophy - the entry level of the Spring Festival league system. With each passing year the band has witnessed promotion slip from our grasp, as the results announce us placed just outside of the promotion positions. 

As we were beginning to draw our plans for this year's contest - the first to be held in Birmingham, a very welcome piece of news came our way. Due to a withdrawal of a band from a higher division, the highest-ranking Senior Trophy band would be invited to compete in the second division - the Senior Cup. Enderby Band had earned promotion through a technicality, but it's wonderful news nonetheless! We can't wait to tackle the test-piece Ballet For Brass, and compete against the next level of bands from across Britain. With each promotion the competition gets tougher, but Enderby Band is up for the challenge!
