We received many compelling entries for the 2023 Fremont Solstice celebration bands! Thank you so much to everyone who sent us your ideas. Our panel selected 15 finalists and now we are announcing them for a community vote! Voting will close and winners will be notified May 27th.

How to vote

Read through the following finalists and when you find the one that strikes your fancy, donate on their page to chip in a bit and give them your vote. $1 = 1 vote and you can donate as much as you like ($5 = 5 votes)!

Where do the funds go?

When you vote for an artist, 50% of the proceeds go directly to the artist you vote for. The other 50% goes towards paying for the parade!
