SAVE THE DATE - SPECIAL PERSONS DAY

BATTLE OF THE BANDS – THE FINAL 2026

Thursday 10th September

Battle of The Bands – THE FINAL 2026 – September 10th

There’s only ONE week until the 2026 PBOB Final at The Corner Hotel - and we need you. We’ve moved up the ticket sales leaderboard, but we want to get to the top…again!

It’s going to be huge – don’t miss it or you may just regret it. A few members of The Ripoffs are signing off this year, and they want to go out in STYLE!!

So, grab some tickets. We’d love you to be there, but if you can’t make it – get a ticket anyway. Tickets for you, and then many tickets for family and friends – there’s plenty to go around.

Best of all, funds raised go directly back to the school music program. It’s a win-win all round… And needless to say, The Ripoffs are in it to win it!!
