If you have season tickets, you may still join us in the Alumni Marching Band section. The main point here is that everyone needs a ticket to get into the game. Thanks!

Everyone wanting to participate in Alumni Marching Band at any level must register to participate. This year, we are continuing to use the shirt design introduced in 2018 (two clashing Rams in gold print). If you already have the long-sleeve shirt, you do not need to buy another shirt. Every participant must have the long sleeve shirt used in 2018 and made available again this year.

Music for the pre-game and halftime performance will be sent via email.

Single-game paid parking is available on campus, for instance, the parking garage on Lake/Center Street is available for pre-purchase. Please visit CSU's gameday parking website for details about these passes.

For more information about public transportation, please visit the Fort Collins public transportation website.

Unfortunately, there is no time for alumni to rehearse with the CSU Marching Band before the parade, so alumni are asked to join their friends and family in cheering on the band as it passes by during the Festival on the Oval, followed by the pep rally and bonfire on the west lawn of the Lory Student Center.

Catch up with fellow Alumni Band members at a social event on Thursday evening during homecoming weekend. Information is coming soon.

Due to the growth of the CSU Marching Band, we have a limited number of brass instruments and percussion, which will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis to members who have completed their participation registration. Woodwind instruments are not available.

DRUMLINE – Snare/quad players must bring their own sticks; bass drum mallets are provided.

COLORGUARD - 5.5’ poles and silks will be provided.

A link to music will be sent via email. At our rehearsal on Saturday, you will receive a flip folder containing your music for the day.

The colorguard routine will be choreographed and recorded. It will be posted soon. Keeping in mind that rehearsal time is limited, for the halftime tune, we will create simple segments that can be mixed and matched.

Yes, friends and family members may also purchase a long-sleeve t-shirt. Simply purchase an additional Alumni Marching Band Participation package for each desired shirt.
