UIL Region
October 24 — CFFCU Stadium
The Bridgeland Band's UIL journey begins at Region competition with peer 6A schools from Region 27. All bands receiving a Division 1 rating will advance to UIL Area on October 31.

UIL Area
October 31 — CFFCU Stadium
If the Bridgeland Band receives a Division 1 rating at UIL Region, they will compete against other qualifying 6A schools from Area I ("i"), including Regions 23 and 27.
If 15 or more bands compete at UIL Area, one band for every 5 bands will advance to State based on their rank order. For example:
< 15 competing = 2 bands advance
15-19 competing = 3 bands advance
20-24 competing = 4 bands advance
25-29 competing = 5 bands advance
30-34 competing = 6 bands advance
Therefore, we want as many bands as possible to earn Division 1 ratings at Region! The more bands that advance from there to Area, the more that get to go to State!
