WELCOME!
The Perth Citizens’ Band is the longest continuous running Town Band in Canada dating back to 1850.
SUMMER/FALL POPS CONCERTS FOR 2026
The Perth Citizens’ Band, Canada’s oldest continuing town band, is preparing for the 2026 season of its annual Summer/Fall Pops Concert Series. These concerts in the downtown core have been a longstanding tradition of the band for well over 100 years. The concerts feature a variety of music ranging from classical, Broadway and movie themes, to jazz, rock, blues and other popular forms; a bit of music for all tastes and ages. In addition, conductor Brian Tackaberry includes heritage pieces from the band’s historic files as well as songs by Canadian composers or arrangers.
