The 2026 World Majorette Festival is scheduled for June 26–28, 2026, at Napoleon High School in Napoleon, Ohio. Organized by the World Twirling Association (WTA), the annual event attracts baton twirlers, majorettes, teams, and collegiate competitors from across the United States and beyond.
The festival features a wide variety of competitive events, including Fancy Strut, Solo, Two Baton, Three Baton, Flag, Dance Twirl, Show Twirl, Duet events, team competition, and a Collegiate Twirler Competition. The weekend begins with an Opening Ceremony and Best Appearing competition, followed by two full days of individual and team events.
For many participants, the World Majorette Festival serves as both a championship event and a celebration of traditional majorette and baton twirling competition. The festival has developed a loyal following among athletes, coaches, and families who value its emphasis on performance, pageantry, and sportsmanship.
As competitors gather in Ohio for the 2026 edition, the World Majorette Festival will continue a longstanding tradition of showcasing baton twirling and majorette excellence while providing opportunities for athletes of all ages to compete on a national stage.
