2025 High School Band Parade Registration

Attention High School Marching Bands!

We want your school’s band to participate in the 2025 Downtown Youngstown Holiday Parade & Christmas Tree Lighting on December 5, 2025, and WesBanco is giving you an amazing incentive to participate!

The WesBanco “Strike up the Band” Program will donate $1,000 to your school for the band program just for participating!

To add even more excitement, the schools with the most holiday spirit during the parade will win an additional prize for their band!

There are limited spots available, so acceptance will be on a first come first serve basis. Please complete the form below. The form must fully be filled out for your band to be in the running for this program.

We will contact you regarding your eligibility as well as parade specifics.
