🎶 May Booster News 🎶

Greetings, Plano Band families!

We’ve reached the final stretch of an incredible year, and May is packed with performances, celebrations, and moments that showcase the talent and hard work of our students. From our dazzling Prism Concert to the long‑awaited Band Banquet, we can’t wait to close out the year together in true Plano Band style.


✨Prism Concert – grab your tickets now!

Get ready for our grand‑finale performance of the year! The Plano Band Prism Concert is a surround‑sound, non‑stop musical experience showcasing the many “colors of sound” across our entire program.

When: Thursday, May 14 at 7 p.m.

Where: PSHS Auditorium

Featuring:

• The dynamic Plano concert bands

• Chamber ensembles in a variety of styles

• The ever‑popular PanCats Steel Drum Band

• The sizzlin’ hot Plano Jazz ensembles

Because the show runs continuously and the house stays dark, we encourage families to arrive early and stay through the end.

👉 All tickets are reserved seating and on sale now at pshsbd.booktix.com.

This concert will sell out, so grab your seats early!

🎉Band Banquet – Ticket sales end May 8!

There is still time to join us on Saturday, May 16 for a memorable evening of great food, awards, and dancing as we celebrate our students and mark the 75th Anniversary of the Plano Band. The banquet is open to all band and color guard members, their families, and friends.

Ticket Prices

  • $0 – Current PSHS Band and Color Guard Students (While banquet tickets are complimentary for band students, an RSVP is required for headcount purposes.)
  • $30 – All other guests

Be sure to purchase your tickets by Friday, May 8! Tickets will not be sold after this date due to deadlines required by our caterer.  

📣 Vines Band Banquet – Student Volunteers Needed

The Vines Band Boosters are seeking student volunteers to help serve food at the band banquet on Saturday, May 9 at the PSHS cafeteria.

Volunteers should arrive at 5:45 p.m. and plan to stay until 7 p.m. Dinner service begins shortly after the event starts at 6 p.m.

If students need service hours or would just like to help the event run smoothly, they would love your support. Dinner is not guaranteed for volunteers but may be available after all guests are served. If you have family attending, you’re welcome to join them once your shift is complete. Those interested in volunteering should email Vines Banquet Coordinator, Hayley Lee at hdlee4821@gmail.com.
