OUR ANNUAL BIG BAND FESTIVAL THIS YEAR WAS HELD AT THE NEWLY REFURBISHED CORN EXCHANGE IN DONCASTER ON 28 DECEMBER 2024. OUR BANDS WERE THE FIRST TO PERFORM IN THIS NEW VENUE TO A SOLD OUT AUDIENCE AND WHAT A FABULOUS EVENING IT WAS.
DONCASTER JAZZ ALUMNI WERE OUR SPECIAL GUESTS AND OPENED THE SHOW WITH THEIR USUAL BRILLIANCE!
OUR NEWLY FORMED DYJA FOUNDATION BAND FOLLOWED AND WHAT A PERFORMANCE THEY GAVE!
DONCASTER YOUTH SWING ORCHESTRA WERE UP NEXT WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM OUR EX LEAD ALTO TOMAS SAUL. GREAT SWINGING PERFORMANCE TO RAPTUROUS APPLAUSE!
THE DYJA COLLECTIVE CLOSED THE SHOW WITH AN OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCE FIT FOR A FINALE!
