Fanfarenzug Neustrelitz came into being in 1996 and was built combining other fanfare bands. The tradition of music played on fanfares in this region reaches to the times of the Grand Dukes of Mecklenburg-Strelitz. Right now there are three generations of musicians playing in this band and learning from eachother. Since 2013 the Fanfarenzug Neustrelitz is champion of the federal state Mecklenburg-West Pomerania. During the last years, the band held the first places in the competitions of march and show during the Fanfaronade gaining the corresponding medals – at first in the 2nd division, than in the 1st division.
