Philadelphia Thanksgiving Day Parade – ALL-STAR Band


Marching Bands are a very integral part of every successful parade. The pageantry, music selections, colors, marching style, and auxiliary contributions, displayed by marching bands, help create a stunning presentation.


Of course the Philadelphia Thanksgiving Day Parade (The Nation’s oldest Thanksgiving Day Parade) is no exception, as numerous qualifying high school, college and specialty bands apply for the coveted fifteen marching band ala breve


positions each year.


Since the three hour live television broadcast is a very complex mix of entertainment, gigantic balloons, magnificent floats, stars, and special production numbers, they are limited to the number of marching bands that appear in the parade.


These limitations have


historically prohibited the appearance of marching bands that have a participant count of less than 125 members….until now.


Introducing the Philadelphia


Thanksgiving Day Parade ALL-STAR Band!


The ALL-STAR Band is open to units of 40+ members that will combine with other marching units to create a massed band like no other.


Bands from all over the world are encouraged to apply, regardless of style (i.e. Dance, Military, Drum Corps style, Traditional, Scottish, etc). Variety in marching band styles is an important ingredient to our overall parade presentation.


Band directors & Travel Planners/Tour Operators are encouraged to contact info@grouptravelnetwork.com for more
