Foothill Band Review brings a morning parade and afternoon field show to Pleasanton Saturday

Pleasanton will hear marching bands in two settings Saturday, Oct. 24: first downtown, then on the field at Foothill High School. The 52nd annual Foothill Band Review begins with an 8:15 a.m. parade, followed by a field show starting at 3 p.m.

The afternoon performances are at the high school, 4375 Foothill Road. Both times are local Pacific time, according to the organizer’s 2026 event page. The Northern California Band Association also lists the Pleasanton event on its Oct. 24 calendar as a parade and field-show competition.

For spectators, the important distinction is the location: the morning parade is downtown, not at the high school. The organizer’s maps page has separate parade and Foothill campus guides to help visitors plan each part of the day.

Field-show tickets are sold through the Foothill Band Boosters Club’s linked ticket page. Check that page for available ticket categories and current prices before heading out. The performance-schedule page still displayed a 2025 lineup when checked Friday, so it should not be used to choose a particular band’s 2026 appearance time.
