What is ContestDay?

The Platform

Every contest season, thousands of brass band enthusiasts navigate the same scattered landscape — searching for draws, checking for results, wondering what's happening in which hall.

ContestDay brings it together. One app, every contest. Real-time draws published from the hall. Results the moment they're announced. Live scoring so you can play adjudicator yourself.

Underpinning it all is the richest dataset brass banding has ever had — band histories, conductor records, test piece archives, qualification pathways. The data has always existed in scattered programmes and memory. Now it has a home.

"The draw goes up. The crowd rushes to find it. Somebody always knows somebody who knows. ContestDay makes sure everyone knows — at the same moment."
