Concerts & Performances
November 2024 update: The QEBPA will be presenting some options for new uniforms to Mr. Parker and the band, which we hope can go along with a new logo from the students. Our goal is to have some casino money from the school for this effort, and also some of the fundraisers.

Thanks for all your support - the bands' performances during the Fine Arts Showcase were spectacular and the attendance was overwhelming!!
Queen Elizabeth Fine Arts Showcase
Location: Queen Elizabeth Senior High School
On December 12, QEHS hosted our annual Knight’s Night Fine Arts Showcase which is an event to highlight all the artistic talents and abilities of students who are involved in any Fine Arts and CTS courses through first semester. This was a wonderful night filled with visual art, dramatic performances, culinary arts, and of course the band program.
Anticipated events
Students in the Queen Elizabeth Band can look forward to the following events throughout the year:
Concerts: Students participate in a Winter and Spring Concert to showcase their accomplishments
Band Trips: Each band group is taken on a trip that allows them to work with clinicians and develop their skills. These events come at an additional cost but can be offset with fundraising credits.
Alberta International Band Festival: Students in all bands typically perform in the AIBF each year in February/March. The costs for the AIBF are paid for by the QEBPA.
