Welcome to the website of one of Ireland's oldest and most respected Brass and Reed Bands, the Boherbuoy Brass and Reed Band. Established in 1850, in the Boherbuoy area of the city, the band is well known locally for our tradition and sense of community.

Many musicians in Limerick have some sort of connection with the Boherbuoy. Known across the city any county, the Boherbuoy Band is thriving in Ireland's wonderful Limerick City. And we don't just confine our playing to the Limerick area. We are well known in Clonakilty (Co. Cork), for the South of Ireland Band Championships. We also play regularly in Clare and Tipperary. In 1989 the Band travelled to Estonia and in 2004 to France.

We are annual partakers in The International Marching Band Competition in Limerick. Although we are not officially a Marching Band, we like to keep on our toes and do some marching from time to time - Especially on St. Patrick's Day.

The Band is available for hire for concerts, etc. throughout the year. With our 150 year old music library we should be able to find anything you want!

Boherbuoy also run a school of music, providing tution through a range of instruments. If you or your company would like to sponsor an instrument or the band in general, please contact us.

We are always interested in contacts with other bands, both far and near. If you are a band coming to Ireland, please pay a call to Limerick and visit our beautiful city. And if you are anywhere near the Bandroom, drop in!
