The Marching Band
The Marching Band currently has 48 active members. They mainly appear at traditional “Schützenfest” and village fairs. They also provide music for the Leverkusen Carnival Committee and the Carnival Prince at around 80 events every year, ensuring a lively party.

The band is very keen on encouraging young musicians, offering young people extensive musical tuition on instruments such as flute or drum and inviting them to come to rehearsals from an early stage.

History

The Marching Band was established in 1959. Dirk Laufenberg has been the Chairman since 1996. That same year his brother Birger, who was born in Leverkusen and had been a member of the Marching Band since he was 14, took over the musical directorship.
