Thank you for your interest in the Plainfield Invitational Concert Band Festival College (of Music) Fair! We’ll have almost 30 high school bands in attendance for our 2025 event on Saturday, March 1. The College Fair will be officially open from 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM and anyone paying admission to the band festival or performing at the festival will have access to the College Fair.
To add to a fantastic performance and clinic setting, we’d love for you to join us and share with our visiting students what your College or University has to offer future music students! $250 provides you with a 10×10 booth space along the outer perimeter of the hallway outside the Auditorium with great visibility, tables, chairs, and meals provided throughout the day. Friday night setup is available if requested. There are also advertisements available in our program book to fit a number of advertising budgets. Please direct any questions to Chris Vanderwall, Director of Bands at Plainfield Central High School, at cvanderw@psd202.org.
The deadline to register for this year’s College (of Music) Fair is February 21, 2025.
