Zundert Flower Parade to showcase marching band float
Marching.com is heading back to The Netherlands to cover the legendary Bloemencorso Zundert for the fifth time in ten years. This year's parade features a float design depicting an entire marching band with a creative twist, and also includes performances by our friends Jubal Drum & Bugle Corps (Netherlands) and DrumSpirit Percussion Ensemble (Belgium). You can watch a live stream on Dutch provincial television at www.omroepbrabant.nl beginning at 1:45 PM in Europe (6:45 AM Central in USA) on Sunday, September 4.
