Welcome to Utah PTA Battle of the Bands
Battle of the Bands is a Utah PTA program introduced in 2002 to give high school students the opportunity to share, celebrate, and be recognized for their garage-band musical talents through participation in a three-level statewide competition.
This year, we are excited to celebrate the program's 25th year! Mark your calendars for Saturday, April 17, 2027—the 25th annual state competition will be held on that day at The Depot in Salt Lake City. Note: This is a new date, so update your calendar!
PTA volunteers at all levels are essential to make the magic happen. Get involved and be a part of history! Send email to battleofthebands@utahpta.org to learn more.
