An early Christmas concert is to be held to coincide with Remembrance Sunday.

The Blackburn and Darwen Band have done a Christmas concert at Darwen Library Theatre for many years, with the community event attracting a full audience.

This year however, organisers have decided to arrange the concert for Remembrance Sunday as a joint celebration.

A spokesperson for the band said: "Naturally, all those who normally go up to Bold Venture Park on a bus for the Remembrance Sunday event are welcome."

The event will start at 2pm and tickets are available from Darwen Library Theatre or King George's Hall at a cost of £6.
