Welcome to the website of one of the oldest brass bands in the world!

Old picture of band

Woodhouse Prize Band is a traditional brass band on the south side of Sheffield in the UK about two miles from junction 31 on the M1.

Founded in 1853, we are one of the oldest surviving brass bands in the country in continuous existence and we’re incredibly proud of our heritage. We don’t spend all our time looking backwards though. For a local village band, we think we’re quite progressive with our music and our outlook.

DVD – “World Class Brass

We had a night to remember in April 2024 when the Band were invited to share the stage with the world famous Black Dyke Band.  For all of us at Woodhouse it was a bucket list concert and one that will go down in the bands history books.  Many of our followers joined the audience that packed the Victoria Hall in Sheffield and were treated to an evening of world class music. 

If you weren’t able to join us at the Victoria Hall we’ve produced a DVD of the live performance, available to purchase at any of our concerts. 

DVD – £5.00
