A PERFORMANCE OUTLET
FOR MARYLAND BANDS

Our goals are simple:

  • To offer a performance outlet to marching bands of all types, including a Festival component (with or without ratings) as well as competition in various divisions.
  • To provide meaningful feedback from highly qualified clinicians and adjudicators.
  • To build an organization from the ground up using input from any and all Maryland band directors and hand off governance of the organization to an executive board and several committees.
  • To provide all of this at a substantial cost savings to participating bands as well as show hosts.
  • To run a true Maryland State Championship at Towson University to close our season.

Looking forward to being a part of MMBA and truly focusing on Maryland bands and their needs through top-quality adjudicators, director input, and cost-effective participation.

I am very excited for the inclusivity that this organization is prepared to offer. The MMBA is providing a vehicle for all students to excel, perform, and achieve.

Maryland needed an organization like the MMBA that served the needs of all marching band types.  I’m looking forward to receiving feedback from highly qualified clinicians and adjudicators.

MIKE HARRISON, Urbana HS

The MMBA will be a great performance opportunity for Maryland marching bands.  In an era of tight budgets, the cost savings for participating and hosting shows is very attractive.

We’re proud to be hosting a true Maryland State Marching Band Championships here at Towson University.  We look forward seeing HS bands from across the state.
