For the third consecutive year, the Colorado State University Marching Band will make a special appearance during halftime at the Denver Broncos home opener vs. the Baltimore Ravens on Sun., Sept. 13 at Sports Authority Field at Mile High. Kickoff is at 2:25 p.m.

The band is planning a patriotic show honoring our military men and women in uniform, and the country they serve.

Historically, the CSU Marching Band performed at more Broncos games than any other band during the 1960s, and received an invitation to entertain fans at the 2009 throwback game celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Denver Broncos Football Club.

“The band is honored to be able to continue the tradition of entertaining the incredible Denver Broncos fans,” said Dr. Richard Frey, associate director of Bands at CSU and director of the CSU Marching Band. “It’s also a nice touch point between Ram alumni and the band.”

The Colorado State University Marching Band has a full fall schedule. In addition to six home game performances, the band performs at many special events including the Broncos halftime show, the Rocky Mountain Showdown, the CBA Northern Regional Exhibition, the CSU Homecoming and Family Weekend parade, the CBA State Marching Band Festival, and the 9News Parade of Lights.

The CSU Marching Band is asking all alumni and friends attending the Sept. 13 Broncos game to support the ensemble by watching the halftime show, singing along to the CSU Fight Song, and sporting, along with their orange and blue, some green and gold.
