Band Concert- Bel Air, MD (near Baltimore) 9-16-12

Post by Heavy_Metal »

The Bel Air Community Band will perform at the annual Bel Air Festival of the Arts, Sunday, September 16, 2012 at 4:00 PM. Location is the William Humbert Amphitheater (a.k.a. the band shell) which is part of Shamrock Park, at the corner of Hickory Avenue and Lee Street in Bel Air. To get to the concert, take MD 24 north from I-95 exit 77 and then:

Take MD 24 into Bel Air
Turn Right onto Business US Route 1
Continue straight through lights at Bond Street (MD 924 south) and Main Street (MD 924 north) onto Fulford Avenue (beginning of MD 22)
Turn Left at light onto Maitland Street
Continue through light at Churchville Road onto Hickory Avenue (you'll see Bel Air Volunteer Fire Company on Right after the light)
Turn right onto Lee Street and find a place to park.

(directions from the Harford County website, edited for clarity)

We will have FIVE tubas, of 91 musicians total. TubeNetters are invited to introduce yourselves after the show. See you there!

Edits- it is confirmed that we will have five tubas. And the arts festival will run pretty much all day (rain or shine) and will feature live entertainment all day (though I can't find a list of performing groups) so there's no harm in coming early.

From the website http://www.belairfestival.com/info.htm" target="_blank" target="_blank" target="_blank" target="_blank : "All day parking is available at the Bel Air parking garage across the street from the Festival on Hickory Avenue for a $2.00 donation to the Bel Air Auxiliary Police. Admission to the Bel Air Festival for the Arts is free."
