Tours
Lewis Merthyr Band has toured internationally on a number of occasions, including visits to Copenhagen, Denmark; to Ostend, Belgium; and to Rhondda Cynon Taf's twin town of Ravensburg, Germany
In 2020, musicians from the band were scheduled to travel to three continents and perform in a series of high profile international events marking the 75th anniversary of the end of the Second World War and 75 years of peace in Europe in Europe, Russia and the USA. Due to the global Covid-19 pandemic however, these events regrettably had to be cancelled
The band enjoyed resuming our international performances in July 2022 however, when Lewis Merthyr travelled to Aachen, Germany and Kerkrade, Netherlands to perform in the renowned World Music Contest, where the band gave the European premiere performance of Chris Marshall's "Cantata For The Rhondda" Fulling Mill Lea
Members of the band travelled to the USA in 2022 to participate in the Estes Park International Tattoo and Longs Peak Scottish Irish Highland Festival in Colorado performing there with City of Bristol Brass Band. Images from the tour are available here
The band are currently in discussions to visit the Netherlands in 2025
