If you’re looking for an exclusive event for your marching band in 2024, look no further than the Thanksgiving Parade of Bands.
The Thanksgiving Parade of Bands, now in its 14th year, was created by Bob Rogers Travel to provide student performers with a unique showcase and a one-of-a-kind trip.
Your program will enjoy:
- An unforgettable experience at the Walt Disney World® Resort, performing in front of Cinderella’s Castle for thousands of guests, watching in person and via online webcast
- Distinguished clinicians (and more of them than at the bowl games)
- An extravagant Thanksgiving dinner, awards ceremony, and private performance by the Presidio Brass
- A private dessert party and viewing of EPCOT’s nighttime show
- And more!
But don’t take our word for it. Here’s what past participants say:
“As someone who has participated in the Thanksgiving Parade of Bands three times, I can unequivocally say that your students will truly love this experience. It continues to be one of the most anticipated events of our members’ tenure in our marching band program. This event brings together groups from all over the country, allowing students to share the same passion for music which will be remembered for a lifetime.”

“The Bob Rogers Travel Thanksgiving Parade of Bands has been a highlight of our calendar since it started in 2009. Different from a standard parade performance in the parks, the Thanksgiving event gives our students the opportunity to be a part of a professionally-produced Disney attraction for thousands of spectators, complete with lights, fireworks, voiceovers, character appearances and the amazing Presidio Brass. Our kids get to work alongside other band students from around the country and learn from high-level collegiate instructors. And the Thanksgiving dinner and party is fantastic! It’s an experience like no other.”
