Bellefonte Area High School Marching Band
The BAHS Marching Band is an extracurricular ensemble consisting of woodwinds, brass, percussion, and Band Front (majorettes, dance team, and silks). You can register for Marching Band via our Google Form. Information about 2023 Band Front and Drumline auditions can be found by clicking that tab in the sidebar.
When school begins, Marching Band rehearses on Tuesdays/Thursdays from 6:30-8pm.
The theme for the 2023 Field Show is JUST DESSERTS, featuring music inspired by a sweet tooth. Click the link to see a video of one of our performances of the 2022 Field Show, From the Desert and the 2021 Field Show, Goin' Down the Bayou.
