About
Now entering our 10th year - The Tenino Marching Band Festival and Drumline Battle is a one-of-a-kind marching performance opportunity. Participating bands present field shows, battle for drum line supremacy, participate in a massed performance with the other performers. Directors get the opportunity for collaboration with other bands, observe other directors common practice with their field performances, receive feedback on your presentation and give your students the opportunity to witness the excitement of marching band (clock hours included).
The Tenino Marching Band Festival and Drumline Battle also features clinics for individual sections featuring outstanding music educators from the South Sound and beyond.
The Tenino Marching Band Festival is for experienced and non-experienced bands. Bring your band to a single song on the field, or with the massed band, or your drummers for the drumline battle. No performance is too small. We are a supportive environment developed to encourage student success and growth.

-Derek Pyle, Auburn Mountainview HS
"Our their first marching competition in 15 years, and I couldn't be more proud. We kept it simple, and the kids really enjoyed themselves and marched one heck of a show! Can't wait to see what next year brings!! Thank you for inviting us and making it such a wonderful experience for me and my kids!"
-Jessica Ewing, Elma HS
"I recommend this for every band on the west side wanting something out of the ordinary from the heavy competitive shows. Andrew does a great job of keeping this show exciting, warm, and welcoming to programs with first year marching band, non-competitive shows, or just anyone who needs something different in their program. I took my band our first 2 years doing a field show, and the kids still remember it."
