Welcome to the EMPORIA MUNICIPAL BAND Website!

Here, you can learn about our city's Band, its history, its members, and see a calendar of concert events and programs. Please feel free to look around and enjoy yourself.

During the months of June and July, the programs for our Thursday evening concerts are listed in the Emporia Gazette, and are also announced during the morning show on the KVOE radio  station. Of course, you can find the programs listed here as well!

Thanks for stopping by, and we'll see you in the park!

Our next concert is only:

3rd Annual Christmas Concert - Granada Theater - 3:00 pm

EMB plays on – with your help! Donations to help the Emporia Municipal Band can now be sent to our new support organization -  Friends of the City band. F.O.C.B. is looking for not only donations, but also members and sponsors/underwriters for the Band's summer concert series. For more information, contact Vicki Allen at dnallen@cableone.net Roger Hartsook at hartsookr@kvoe.com.

OUR 70th YEAR!! The Emporia Municipal Band was chartered by the City of Emporia in January of 1941, after the 161st Field Artillery Band had been called to active duty, and gave its first performance in a parade on Saturday, April 12, 1941. The 2010 Summer season will be the Band's 70th!
