	Bridgwater Guy Fawkes Carnival - 7th Nov The Musketeers take Somerset by storm and thrill 150,000 spectators at the Worlds Largest Illuminated Parade
	Walesby CCC Show 4th Oct On a very cold and windy day the Band headed for the deepest darkest Columber Park
	Mamma Twiggs Garden Party Sept 14th What a brilliant end to the day and what Fantastic FOOD

	Normanton 13th September After a short Break the Band headed North for their first visit to Normanton.
	The Battle of Flowers 2008 Possibly the best trip the band has undertaken in 30 years. Follow the link and see the fun and enjoyment had by everyone.
	Sutton on Sea 27th July This was our last engagement before our third visit to the Jersey ‘Battle of Flowers’ in a fortnights time, so we all intended to give it our best at this venue and with seven members missing due to holidays we were initially lacking that extra zest, but not enthusiasm. Possibly the best show in years
	Cutthorpe Carnival 20th July The Musketeers Showband briskly lead the lengthy mass of floats in the sunny but blustery weather, with Callum making his much heralded debut on mace.
	Hatton Carnival 19th July Heading up the A50 for our first visit to Hatton Village Carnival on Saturday 19th July, for the midday parade commencing from the Nestle car park.
	Eastwood Arts Festival 12th July With the Chesterfield members travelling down to Eastwood to join up with the Eastwood members in the guise of the ‘Phoenix Band’ once again for the Arts Festival fun day on Coronation Park.
	Warsop Carnival 6th July Again the persistent drizzle accompanied the band at the early part of the parade but, as this progressed the rain subsided as the ‘Musketeers’ entered Carrs showground.
	Bakewell Carnival 5th July Setting off for Bakewell Carnival, the ‘Musketeers’ longest running repeat engagement for the 32nd year. Even though we awakened to drizzly weather we were still confident we wouldn’t get a soaking here, Bakewell as this aura about it.
	Colliers Wood 3rd July As part of the agreement when our two bands combined, we presented our first joint engagement under the auspice of ‘the Eastwood Phoenix Band’ at the Colliers Wood beauty spot in Eastwood.
	Ravensknowle Childrens Gala 28th June Arriving at Ravensknowle Park (Huddersfield) bright and early, giving the band members time to search out the "Bargins" on the charitable stalls before having to change into uniforms for the parade.

	Morton Carnival 28th June After our brief skirmish with the weather last week we were back to something approaching normality as we arrived in the geographical centre of England to participate in the Annual Morton Carnival.
	Grindleford Carnival 21st June Sunday Lunch The Band finally succumbed to a wet drizzly dat at Grindleford Carnival
	Hasland "Friends of the Park" 15th June Sunday Lunch time and the members arrived at Eastwood Park, Hasland to participate in the "Friends of the Park".
	Chapel-en-le-Frith 14th June A full weekend of events commenced with the Chapel-en-le-Frith Carnival Parade. The Band was requested to lead the parade.
	New Mills 7th June Once on the march the 'Musketeers' and 'Billerettes' teamed up to thrill the lined streets along the entire route from start to finishing at the carnival ground.
	Wirksworth Carnival 26th May Along the parade the ‘Musketeers’ entertained the brilliant turnout along the route with their own inimitable style of dancing and music to the very responsive crowd.
	Parade Of Witnesses 26th May The eagerly awaited first engagements of the season for the ‘Musketeers Showband’ was the double header on Bank Holiday Monday 25^th May commencing with the traditional ‘Parade of Witnesses’ in Chesterfield town centre. But for the new active 28 united members a nerve racking experience for everyone concerned.
	Winter Practice 2008 Plenty of enthusiasm and activity as the season starts.
