BandRoyale. BAND ROYALE 2015 | STARTS MARCH 6th! This years comp is nearly underway! See you on Stage! Band Royale involves 40 unsigned bands playing live in 6 heats.

•Band Royale• The LOUDEST Band Competition in the region is back again & we've brought not 10, not 20, but 40 bands with us!....Kicking, snarling, wailing & competing for the pleasure of your lovely ears! Starting April 2014 and running each Friday Night until July - the Grand Final! Those that progress will have to impress the audience and our judges to get through to the 4 quarter and semi final

s; with four acts heading to the Grand Final! In 2008 Band Royale saw Cafe Matisse become the center of the live music world for 15 weeks. ‘Aspen Grove’, the eventual winners have gone on to sign up to a record label and tour throughout Europe. 2010’s competition saw Hippies on the Hill win the accolades. The young & talented band recently announced a UK tour and will be headlining the Masque in Liverpool as this goes to print.



“This event will see a fantastic array of genres, attitudes & experience battling it out to be crowned the number one band in the area! We encourage all ages and levels to apply, but be warned; although the audience vote does count, it is the judges who will ultimately be making the decisions!”

Several independent judges will be chosen from a music related background each week to decide which act follows through to the next corresponding round. Judging is based on multiple factors. Voting slips are counted by the judges. The judge’s decision is final. Cover songs are allowed and there is no upper limit to how many you can perform. Judging covers is based upon the act’s ability to ‘recreate’ a track and make it their own, amongst other factors. Raffles are conducted by Band Royale staff only. Tickets cost 50 pence for one and £1 for 5 tickets. Raffle winners will be picked by the host on the night and their decision is final. Entry to the venue works on a rock, paper, scissors format – beat us at the game on the door and we’ll knock £1 off the normal £3 entry price!
