The Saturday, Nov 8th Auburn Veteran's Day Marching Band Festival is two events:

• Veteran's Day Parade in the morning (parade starts at 11 am)
  
• Marching band competitions in the afternoon and evening (1 pm to 10 pm)
  

The Auburn Veteran's Day Parade is the largest such parade west of the Mississippi River featuring over 200 units and about 25 marching bands. The parade runs East to West along Main Street towards B St NW.

The band competition is held in nearby Memorial Stadium and will feature over 30 high school marching bands. Because of the morning parade, this event does not have separate preliminary and final competition phases. Bands perform their field show just once.
