We're excited to share an early look at the brand-new ILMarching website! We've rebuilt the site from the ground up with a modern design — all the bands, festivals, scores, and videos you're used to, now on a foundation that makes it much easier to grow and add new features.

Updated 2026 schedule just dropped. Only missing a few shows hosted last year. ilmarching.com/festivals.php

Happy New Year to all! We've started building the 2026 schedule! All dates are tentative. ilmarching.com/festivals.php If you see something we're missing, submit it here: ilmarching.com/submit.php
