The famed showdown of musical might has returned! The 2025 “Battle of Bands” makes a jump to the Orcas Center on Saturday, Sept. 13, at 6 p.m. for an event that is bigger than ever!

Featuring all local and regional music, on this fateful day, bands will compete for trophies and glory, all while raising money for the Orcas Community Resource Center. With our intrepid hosts, we will learn what it means to be a band, the highs and lows of musicianship and perhaps even the meaning of love!

With guest judges, skits, laughs and hijinks, the “Battle of the Bands” always delivers a night jam-packed with music, heart and thunder!

Please bring money to donate to the charity and to support your favorite band for the People’s Choice Award!

Tickets range in price from $15-$70, with a special $10 price for students. Purchase tickets online at www.OrcasCenter.org, over the phone at 360-376-2281 ext. 1 or in person Tuesday through Friday, 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., and an hour prior to showtime. And don’t forget, volunteers who help with iPad check-in get to see the show for free!
