Ghent Band Celebrates its 127th Year with its 2026 Concert Series
All concerts are free of charge and provide a chance to unplug and unwind the same way people did a century ago. “One of the few changes to the band is our size. We often bring forty musicians, the most in our history,” noted Band Historian Gregg Berninger. “Listening to the Ghent Band is like traveling through time, relaxing just like folks have since 1899.” Concert goers can expect a little something for everyone—a mix of marches, show tunes, waltzes, and even light classical.
