Thousands of high school students from across the United States converged in downtown St. Louis for the Bands of America Super Regional Championship.
For many schools, the super regional is a test run to compete in the Bands of America Grand National contest later this month. That Indianapolis-based championship is the culmination of the season for many of the nation’s top competitive marching bands.
The super regional contest runs Friday and Saturday at the Dome at America’s Center in St. Louis. Tickets can be purchased at the stadium's box office.
