MASON CITY, Iowa – The North Iowa Band Festival is announcing the award winners for its 82nd edition this Memorial Day weekend.
The theme of the 2021 festival is ““Banding Together and Marching Forward” and the Grand Marshal Award is going to the hundreds of essential workers who continue to serve North Iowans during the pandemic. Festival organizers say the Grand Marshal Award traditionally recognizes a person or people of local or national prominence who have made a significant contribution to the development, history, or success of the festival. This year, however, Band Festival committee members say they considered the events of the past year and chose to honor an entire group of people who made a significant contribution to the health and well-being of all North Iowans.
