Come to The Hall on Thursday, November 7, at 6 PM to receive your participant packets and meet your fellow band members. If you can't make it at this time but would still like to participate, please reach out to booking@jadepresents.com and we will find a solution.
We will go over the rules, answer questions, and solve any problems that pop up! After the participant meeting, it's time to get to work! Develop a plan to practice and work on music with your group because in 48 hours you will be performing for two judges and an audience of adoring fans!

On Saturday, November 9 at 7PM, your band will perform your music for three judges and the public. There will be awards for first and second place, and people’s choice.
