For the 21st year local band members are spending a week offering free music lessons.
Holbeach Town Band members will throw open their Back Lane base doors from 2pm to 4pm starting on Monday, July 29 to Friday, August 2.
The Learn To Play week is for anyone interested in learning to pop along, and the band will provide instruments for visitors to use.
A spokesman for the band said: “The free ‘Learn to Play’ week has been arranged during the school holidays and the Band hope that school children will also be interested.
“The week is not limited to children and people of all ages (seven and above) are welcome to come along.
“If you have ever thought about learning to play a brass instrument, or if you have played in the past and would like to try again, this is the perfect opportunity.
“Experts will be on hand to show you how to play a wide range of brass instruments – cornet, tenor horn, baritone, euphonium, trombone and tuba.
“We will be able to teach you how to play an instrument and how to read music. You can return as often as you like during the week but will get the most benefit from coming every day.
“The band can offer longer term training through its starter group and learner group on Saturday mornings and the Training Band (for improvers) on a Wednesday evening. Private lessons can also be arranged.
“We are always pleased to welcome existing players to their rehearsals on Wednesday evenings.”
