Nine years ago the Youth In Music Championships were just a dream and an idea. In those years the YIM Championships have grown from 9 to 20 bands and 1,400 to 6,000 in attendance. The YIM Championships have quickly become one of the premier marching band events in the Midwest. Join us on Saturday October 12, 2013 at the HHH Metrodome in Minneapolis, MN.
The 2012 event was great, with a large lineup of 20 bands from six states all performing in the 70-degree comfort of the indoor dome. Special units will again present featured exhibitions during breaks in the contest. Last year featured exhibitions were presented by The 451st Army Band, Minne-Brass, University of Minnesota-Duluth Marching Band, University of Wisconsin-LaCrosse Marching Band and the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire Blugold Marching Band. 2012 Results

Youth In Music prides itself on providing a unique experience for participating band members and band directors.
• Band directors enjoy a complimentary dinner along with skybox seating during the competition. • Band members have a great time interacting with members of other bands during the dinner break while they play on the Metrodome Turf listening to live music. Future Dates
The event date is determined by the Metrodome schedule. Whenever possible, the intent is to
hold the Youth In Music Championships on the second to last weekend of October.
