The Lincoln-Way Marching Invitational is the annual marching band field show competition hosted by the Lincoln-Way Marching Band. In addition to our excellent facility and amenities, each year we offer a judging panel with some of the country’s biggest names in the marching arts, providing your students with an exciting opportunity to perform as a final performance for your season, or in preparation for your following performance at ISU, U of I, or at a BOA event.
In addition, we offer an optional "Judge's Critique" session, a wonderful opportunity for you as the Band Director and your instructional staff to engage in productive conversation with the judging panel about your show design and band's performance. This optional event occurs after the end of the invitational, once all bands have completed their performances.
