Festival of Bands, October 6
The OMB needs your help to cover one of the many available shifts while they perform on the field for this year's Festival of Bands at Autzen Stadium on October 6. You can choose from a variety of jobs, ranging from stadium security to concessions to timing coordination, and your job may even allow you to use a walkie-talkie! Not only do you get to help out the OMB, but you get to hear some of the best bands in the region. Read more about the Festival of Bands on our Events page.

And while we're on the subject, have you considered purchasing advertising space in the Festival of Bands program? What better way to target a music-loving audience! For more information and pricing, contact the Festival of Bands coordinator at .
