The Marching Band at Mason High School is the largest student organization on campus with over 200 students involved. The Marching Band consists of students from all five concert bands, as well as color guard students who may not be in a band. Students do not have to be in Marching Band to be in a Concert Band, but all students in Marching Band must be enrolled in a Concert Band, with the exception of Color Guard members. As a co-curricular activity, students in Marching Band receive .5 credits for participation in this class which meets entirely outside of the school day. Marching Band begins with a mini-camp in June, followed by occasional rehearsals in June and July. The first two weeks of August are Marching Band Camp, which all participants are require to attend. Once school starts the Marching Band rehearses three times a week and performs at pregame and halftime of all home football games, as well as some away games. The Marching Band compete in 6-8 competitions on Saturdays during fall in the MidStates Band Association and Bands of America circuits.

The Marching Band has consistently been a finalist in Bands of America regional competitions and was a semifinalist at Bands of America Grand National Championships in 2002 and 2003.
