Plans for the visit of the Band of HM Royal Marines (Portsmouth) The Royal Band to Deal Memorial Bandstand next week are well in hand.

Copies of the full colour programme, sponsored by the East Kent Mercury, have now been delivered and will be on sale on the day for £2. Look out for a £1 off voucher in next week’s Mercury.

Bandstand trust vice-chairman Bill Butler, who is looking forward to the concert on Sunday, July 14, at 2pm, said: “The memorial concert has been a feature of the summer in Deal and Walmer for the past 24 years and it is expected that another large crowd will enjoy the day on Walmer Green.”

In addition to the main concert there will be pre-concert entertainment provided by the Band of 2235 Squadron Deal Air Training Corps, The Folkestone Military Wives Choir, The Victory Band, The Band of Dover Sea Cadets and a fly past for the third year running by the RAF Spitfire and Hurricane of the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight.
