MCI History

About

The Music City Invitational was founded in 1979 by the DuPont High School Band Boosters. In June 1986, the contest was transferred to McGavock Senior High School Band Boosters due to the closing of DuPont High School. Every year since its initiation, the contest has progressively become one of the most outstanding in the region.
