The Australian Army Band

This special Christmas performance is not to be missed!

Since its formation in 1949, the Australian Army Band Brisbane has become known throughout Queensland as one of the finest Military Bands in Australia, earning a reputation for its musical excellence and impressive military appearance.

Australian Army Band Brisbane supports the Australian Army and Australian Defence Force units in South East Queensland and regularly supports commemorative activities such as Anzac Day. The Band also performs for the wider community, appearing at public events, major concerts, balls and charity fundraisers. Band members have also deployed on domestic and international operations.

The Band is based on a traditional big-band line up of saxophones, trumpets, trombones and rhythm section, complemented by exciting vocalists. The Band’s repertoire ranges from traditional sounds of the big band era, through to exciting arrangements of contemporary rock and pop hits. Enjoying high acclaim wherever they perform, the Australian Army Band Brisbane is a great asset for the State of Queensland and for the Australian Army and has quickly become an audience favorite at The Empire.
