The competition was divided into two stages. The first stage divided the competing bands into 6 qualifying contests, each 'platform' being judged by three adjudicators; the top two from each 'platform' qualified for the second stage.

To the cornet player in the Goldshill Saxhorn Band was awarded the electroplated cornet-a-piston, by Antoine Courtois, presented by Messrs. Chappell and Hammond, for the best soprano or cornet player of the two days' contest. The B flat euphonium, presented by Messrs. Boosey and Sons, for the best bass player of the two days' contest, was awarded to John Walker, of the Cyfarthfa Band.
