The band plays in a wide variety of events. Both state and national competitions provide a focal points for the band to rehearse for during the year.

NWWE also performs a regular concert series to expand our repertoire and provide opportunities for the public to enjoy our music.

Marching Band for Hire

Do you need a marching band based in the Sydney Greater Metropolitan Area for your next community event?

NWWE are available to hire in any number of configurations. Each year we enjoy playing for the troops in the Anzac Day parade, and Santa was very happy to have a smaller selection of NWWE players provide festivities for his grand entrance to a number of Sydney shopping centres last year!

We come on time, prepared with appropriate music, musicians and tidily turned out blue and white uniform with signature white Akubra hats. Our rates are reasonable and funds go to the ongoing running costs of the band.
