The Villa Marina's brass band season gets underway this evening (Tuesday) with Castletown Metropolitan Silver Band being the first to perform.
Concerts take place on Tuesday and Thursday evenings at 8pm in the Villa Marina Arcade and on Sunday afternoons at 3pm in the Villa Marina Gardens if the weather is fine.
In the event of bad weather, Sunday concerts move to the Villa Marina Arcade.
This year the season runs until the middle of August.
Admission is free, although the performing band may take a collection.
