The Hebron Marching Band has been afforded the “invitation only” opportunity to perform on January 1, 2022, as a part of the Tournament of Roses’ Parade in Pasadena! They will proudly represent the Lewisville Independent School District, the Hebron High School Community, the surrounding communities of Lewisville, Carrollton, Frisco, Plano, The Colony, DFW region, and the great State of Texas at the Tournament of Roses' Parade.  They are one of only 6 Dallas Bands invited to the Tournament of Roses’ Rose Parade since 1970.  The Tournament of Roses’ Parade coincides with the Rose Bowl Game, known as the “Granddaddy of them all” ™, and the parade attracts 44 million viewers nationally, 28+ million viewers internationally and 700,00 estimated viewers in the live audience.

The band will travel to this global event in Pasadena, CA with 300+ marching students, 60+ Chaperones and Staff, 4 Semi Trailers of equipment, props, instruments, and luggage. The students will be safely chartered to their destination in California where they will perform with bands from around the world, perform in marching showcases, and march the famous 5 1/2 mile stretch down Colorado Blvd. on New Year’s Day. For many students, this is the first time on an airplane and a first chance at witnessing the power of their potential and their dreams through the lens of a global music educational experience. 

We want to help this remarkable band of student leaders to make their way to this global event culminating at the historically “bucket-list experience” parade.
