25.01.2022 This year, the Ararat City Band celebrated ANZAC Day a little differently this year. There was no street march or no Dawn Service. Some of our members got up early and had their own Dawn Service. They stood at the end of their driveway and played The Last Post. It was a chilling experience and something to all be proud of. Lest We Forget

The sheet music is attached - even if you're a bit rusty, it's the sentiment that counts! See more

The Ararat City Band committee have taken advantage of technology to have meetings online and now preparing to get back into rehearsals. On June 22 restrictions are being lifted to allow 50 people indoors. We've set up the bandroom ready to go with social distancing recommendations. Here we go, back into what we love - making music with friends.
