The Hellgate High School Band has a proud tradition of marching, concert and jazz band performance.

We've marched the Tournament of Roses Parade in 1978, 1984, 1987, 1990 and 2005

We've performed in the Fiesta Bowl Parade in 1992, 1995 and 1999.

We've also performed in the Holiday Bowl Parade of 2001 where we were selected at the Holiday Bowl Festival Sweepstakes winner taking 1st Place in Concert Band and Jazz Band performances.

24 Hellgate Band Musicians participated in the 2007 Montana All-State Band and Orchestra Winds at the Montana Music Education Convention this October in Billings, Montana.

This spring, the Hellgate Band traveled to Orlando, Florida to perform at Festival Disney. The Symphonic Band earned a Superior Rating from the judges. The Jazz Band was selected as the Outstanding Band of the Festival.

This year's District Music Festival saw all of the Hellgate Bands earn a Superior Rating from our adjudicators. In addition there were 97 solos and ensembles participating in the festival.

Please feel free to explore the site. I've worked hard to provide an interesting and informative guide to the Hellgate Bands.
