Get set for a sizzling summer of live music - with an array of styles and genres at the Bandstand.

With a fantastic line up for this summer the place to be on Sundays is the Bandstand. This is still one of the most popular events and enjoyed by all the family. So pack a picnic, blanket, chair and your sun cream and head down to Southsea. Not forgetting those all important dancing shoes for those of you who want to show off your best moves!
