UTC Band Day
BAND DAY 2023 INFORMATION PACKET!
Please make sure you have registered and paid for the event! Read the information in this packet carefully! We will see you soon!
UTC Band Day is an annual event that invites area high school band students to be VIP guests of the Marching Mocs for a day!
Students participate in game day activities including a morning rehearsal, pregame performance, and playing in the stands during the game. Students get the feeling of what it is like to be in a university marching band and are mentored by our very own Marching Mocs. Typically, we have some 300 students join us!
This year, we will be hosting our 16th annual Band Day on Saturday, September 16, 2023, during our home game against the Citadel. A special UTC Band Day t-shirt (which must be worn by all student participants), lunch and some UTC swag will be provided for everyone. We hope you can join us!
The registration deadline is September 1. Students register as individual participants, and we will notify their band director of their desire to participate. Students should be accompanied by either the Band Director or an adult chaperone who will be responsible for the students. One adult (either director or chaperone) will be admitted free from each school. All other adults or family members who may want to attend the game and Band Day festivities may purchase a ticket online through the UTC Athletics Department at a discount using the following link and code. To purchase tickets for any additional adults or family members that might attend the game, use the code BANDDAY on the following link:
Music for the event will be posted for students to access. No music will be available on the day of the event. Drum majors, color guard members, and majorettes are invited as well. Color guard members should bring their own flag and twirlers should bring their own baton. We will not have a front ensemble. We suggest that those who play in a front ensemble bring cymbals to play for the day.
The registration fee for Band Day 2023 is 25.00 per student. Students should register individually and be prepared to make your payment WHEN YOU REGISTER. DO NOT BEGIN THE REGISTRATION PROCESS UNTIL YOU ARE READY TO SUBMIT YOUR PAYMENT! To register click here:
