William Stockley's Orchestra was a symphony orchestra based in Birmingham, England from 1856 to 1899. It was the first permanent orchestra formed of local musicians to be established in the town, in contrast to the earlier Birmingham Festival Orchestra, which consisted largely of outside musicians and only performed during the Birmingham Triennial Music Festival. By 1885 the orchestra was being described in the London press as "a really first-rate band of 80 skilled players" and notable conductors included Frederic Cowen, Charles Villiers Stanford and Antonín Dvořák.
