After being held for many years at McEachern High School, the Cobb County School District’s marching band exhibition will be coming to East Cobb in October.

The CCSD-Marietta Marching Band Exhibition, as it’s formally known, will take on Monday, Oct. 13, with all 16 traditional Cobb high school bands, along with the bands from Marietta High School and Kennesaw State University.

The Cobb school district said in response to a request for information by East Cobb News that the venue change is “due to extensive renovations of Cantrell Stadium at McEachern. ”

Oct. 13 is a digital learning day for Cobb students.

The event at the Lassiter football stadium (2601 Shallowford Road) will take place in two sessions, starting at 3:15 p.m. with the Lassiter band, and concluding with the bands from Kell High School and KSU (see full schedule in flyer below).

Tickets are $7 per adult and $5 for students (ages 5-18) and can be purchased by clicking here; the tickets are good for both sessions.

The exhibition has been held since 1972 and in recent years, has been conducted at McEachern on consecutive Monday nights in early and mid-October.
