The 2016 North American National Championship will head back to the historic Embassy Theatre in Fort Wayne, Indiana in April.

The North American National Championship will once again take place in Fort Wayne, Indiana over the weekend of the 1st/2nd April.

Embassy hub

The historic Embassy Theatre, which since 1928 has hosted many of the State's premier entertainment events, will again be the hub of the action, as the banding movement in the US continues to make solid developmental progress.

Record numbers of bands and supporters attended last year and it's hoped that over 900 brass and percussion performers will take to the stage.

Tickets

Tickets have been on sale since November and already there is a great deal of interest and support.

All tickets are a two day pass and cost $25 for adults and $10 for students 18 and under.

Tickets also include admission to a vendor area in the Indiana Hotel Lobby at the Embassy.
