Festival Info

The 38th Annual Rebel Invitational is a Prelims/Finals format festival. Bands will be classed in Prelims using MSHSAA Football Classifications. Bands will be adjudicated in the following captions: Music Ensemble, Music Effect, Visual Ensemble, Visual Effect, Percussion and Auxiliary. Caption Awards will be given in the following areas: Outstanding Music, Outstanding Visual, Outstanding Percussion and Outstanding Auxiliary. The number of bands that will make finals will be based on the total number of bands entering in Prelims. The typical number of bands making finals is usually 8-10. The winners of each class will automatically make finals and then a number will be added to that total based on the number of prelim bands.
