| Now in its 62nd year, Luverne's
Tri-State Band Festival is the longest-running marching
band festival in the region. The annual parade and field
competition draws bands from Minnesota, Iowa and South
Dakota with more than 2,500 students participating.
The 2012 lineup included 26 participating bands, with
19 bands performing in the parade and 16 performing on
the field. The morning parade travels along Main Street,
with judging near the corner of Main and McKenzie. The
afternoon field competition is held at the Luverne High
School athletic field.
Luverne is located in the southwest corner of
Minnesota, just 30 minutes east of Sioux Falls, South
Dakota. One of Luverne's famous attractions is the Blue
Mounds State Park which features beautiful campsites,
prairie hiking trails, and the only state-owned herd of
bison.
