Past Performances

The Monash Concert Band is committed to playing at a variety of regular local events some of which are organised and/or sponsored by the City of Monash. These events include the:

  • Clayton Festival

  • Mulgrave Festival

  • Ashwood Fun Day

  • Oakleigh Community Festival

  • Monash Philharmonic Society Concert

  • Afternoon at the Proms

  • City of Monash Carols by Candlelight

The City of Monash Carols by Candlelight held at Jells Park, is one of our biggest sponsored events. Every December, the Monash Concert Band contributes a major part of composite group which is referred to as the "Carols by Candlelight Band".


This Band, in conjunction with other local community groups, entertains a crowd of approximately 15,000 to 20,000 people with a selection of Christmas favourites, as well as leading them in singing carols. Santa even drops by for a quick visit! As well as performing Christmas pieces on its own, the Band supports "up & coming" local talent and more seasoned performers who are given the opportunity to entertain the very substantial and appreciative audience.
