Battle of the Bands 2026

On Saturday, March 7, the Entertainment Committee held its yearly Battle of the Bands event at 7:30 p.m. in Bissinger. This is a huge event that many members of the Stevens music scene look forward to, and the selected winners are offered the opportunity to open for the Techfest headliner.
