Summer Sundays at the Bandstand 2025
Summer Sundays at the Bandstand
We're back for another season of free live music every Sunday at the Gorleston Bandstand — and this year, the season's even longer.
From May through to the end of September, join us for a weekly mix of brilliant bands, local talent, and seaside favourites. Whether you pop down for a single set or stay all day, the Bandstand is the perfect place to soak up the summer by the sea.
What to expect:
- Live music every Sunday - morning and afternoon performances
- Deckchair hire - for those who want to settle in and relax
- Traditional Punch & Judy - shows during the school summer holidays
- Theatre bar open all day - serving drinks and refreshments
This year's season kicks off on Sunday 4th May and runs right through to Sunday 28th September — a full month longer than usual.
