Performing as part of the Christmas in Ballarat 2025 entertainment programme are Haddon Community Band.

The Haddon Community Concert Band has been bringing music to the Ballarat region since 1995. The band is comprised of a diverse group of members, varying in age and ability level. They come together from Haddon and Ballarat, with the shared goal of having fun and playing music in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Since its inception the band has been supported by the Haddon Lions Club and surrounding community.

The band is always welcome to new players. Perhaps you used to play an instrument at school, or you have been waiting for an opportunity and are looking for a supportive environment to play and meet new people.

Rehearsals are held at the Salvation Army Community Church on Tuesday nights from 7:00 pm until 8:30 pm. The band boasts a wide range of brass, woodwind, and percussion payers. They play an eclectic range of music from classical pieces to marches, musicals, contemporary and popular arrangements.

Across Victoria’s Midwest, we acknowledge that we travel across the ancient landscapes of many First Peoples communities. These lands have been nurtured and cared for over tens of thousands of years and we respect the work of Traditional Custodians for their ongoing care and protection.

We recognise the past injustices against Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in this country. As our knowledge grows, we hope that we can learn from their resilience and creativity that has guided them for over 60,000 years. As we invite people to visit and explore Victoria’s Midwest, we ask that alongside us, you also grow to respect the stories, living culture and connection to Country of the Ancestors and Elders of our First Peoples.
