About Us
The Acton Citizens' Band, formed in 1872, is comprised of local musicians of all ages who volunteer their time to bring the joy of music to the Acton community and surrounding area.
As both a concert band and a marching band, we make many appearances each year including several feature concerts, Canada Day celebrations, the Acton Fall Fair, and the Santa Claus Parade.
Practices are held every Wednesday from 7:30 pm to 9:30 pm at the Ted Tyler Music Centre on Wallace Street.
