Lone Star is going for sure. They have been back-to-back champs there

[GarbagePatchKid]

I imagine all the top 4A bands will be there. This is a regular one for Celina so all the other top bands (save for panther creek iirc) attend to see how they stack up early on.

I wonder how Lakeview, rowlett, and north forney will do! Lakeview and Rowlett were real close to making finals spot, wonder what they’ll have in store next season!

[BugWub24]

We're back!!

I have updated the confirmed bands as they currently stand.

Lake Highlands will go to Wylie instead of Melissa.

Interesting to see Lovejoy on this list. They currently have Wylie Marching Invitational listed on their calendar for this day.

Just checked and you’re right, they do have Wylie listed for that week. Can’t really speak to whichever is true or not because I just copied and pasted the list of bands from the Melissa band website lol.

I’d probably guess they’re gonna go to Wylie, closer and probably won’t be as insane as a lineup as here so they’d have a better shot at finals.
 

Will probably be off the list next update if I had to guess, though either one is a good option for them
