The Mission of the MPAA Hall of Fame is to honor excellence and preserve the evolving history of the pageantry arts.

The MPAA Hall of Fame recognizes individuals whose extraordinary efforts and accomplishments have significantly enhanced the organization and the activity it serves. Honorees represent a wide range of roles—including designers, directors, adjudicators, administrators, volunteers, and advocates—whose leadership, creativity, and service have strengthened programs, elevated standards, and broadened the reach and impact of the marching arts.

Selection to the MPAA Hall of Fame is based on sustained meritorious contributions, depth and length of service, program success, and meaningful support of educational initiatives, governance, and organizational development. Induction into the Hall of Fame is among the highest honors bestowed by MPAA, recognizing individuals whose lives and work continue to inspire, educate, and serve as role models for current and future generations.
