Come and experience Marching Band Madness!

For one night under the lights, don't miss your opportunity to see the culmination of a day of music, learning and comradery. Marching Band Madness brings together five high school marching bands (Germantown, Cedarburg, Greenfield, Franklin, Sussex Hamilton) to perform their competition programs. As a pre-season event, bands have the opportunity to perform before a large crowd and receive judge feedback without receiving a score. The audience gets a first look at each band's competition program, and band members are able to watch other schools perform. All bands join forces for an epic grand finale where over 400 students take the field at once to perform favorites like "On Wisconsin!"

Before arriving to the field for the show, bands participate in a clinic where they receive judge feedback and have a chance to practice what they have learned. To refuel for their public performances, bands share a meal together allowing students to socialize with band members from other schools. Bands head to the stadium after dinner in preparation for their performances. After each band has performed their program, all band members from all five high schools will take the field to perform some rousing tunes together. It is truly a sight to be seen!
