(Seguin) – Texas high school bands from across the region will get a jump start on their contest season during this weekend’s Seguin Marching Festival. A total of 10 teams will be traveling to Seguin this Saturday for the annual contest and showcase at Matador Stadium. Band Director Marc Telles says Seguin is thrilled to host the popular contest again. He says the bands represent quality schools and communities throughout the area. “This is year seven for the Seguin Marching Festival not including the COVID year, but this is our 7th festival that we have had here in Seguin. It’s been a tremendous opportunity for bands in the
area to come together here in the city of Seguin and perform here at Matador Stadium. We always have a world class set for judges that evaluate all the bands and provide high quality feedback for the bands and for the students so that they are able to continue growth through their marching season in hopes to perform well for their UIL and all the evaluations they have after our festival. Typically, our festival is one of the first contests that schools will go to during their season. So, it’s a great first benchmark for them,” said Telles. Telles says each year, the all-day marching festival brings in several thousands of people to Seguin. Festival, pg. 3
