Join us for one of the area's best parades and marching band competitions! There's no larger parade in Carroll than the Chamber's annual Band Day Parade and Competition.
Make plans now to join us for our 63rd Annual Band Day Parade, Saturday, October 3, 2020.
Our theme this year is Marching Forward, encouraging participants to keep carrying on through this pandemic. Participants are invited to incorporate the Marching Forward theme in any way they'd like throughout their parade entry. An award will be given to the best themed float, as decided by the official parade judges.
Several awards are presented following the event. Bands are awarded 1st, 2nd and 3rd place awards by school class. In addition, color guard and drum major awards are also presented.
Updates will be emailed to all parade registrants as the event approaches. Questions can be directed to Ashley Schable, program director, (712) 792-4383 or a.schable@carrolliowa.com.
