Welcome to The Bandstand Project!

The Bandstand Project started in 2024 and is a work in progress. It aims to document and archive the sounds of empty bandstands from around the world.

Every entry in The Bandstand Project includes a description, photographs, map, and audio recordings, all of which are tagged and searchable. The bandstands are recorded using a variety of techniques and equipment with the intention of creating pieces of music or sound that capture the bandstands’ character, history, and use.

You can browse entries on the Bandstands or Music page or search for specific locations or key words in the search bar below. A map of all bandstands is currently under construction.
