Alumni Band
Alumni Band 2019 Information
We are happy to announce that the 2019 Razorback Alumni Band will take place at the
University of Arkansas Homecoming game on November 2, 2019 when the Razorbacks take
on SEC rival Mississippi State University. As in the past, the Alumni Band will perform
on the field with current members of the Razorback Marching Band. I hope you will
join us for a great weekend of socializing and celebrating our university traditions.
The Alumni Band will perform on the field at Reynolds Razorback Stadium with the Razorback
Marching Band at pregame. In an effort to create a uniform appearance for our Alumni
Band, all alumni who perform with the Alumni Band on the field will be asked to wear
khaki pants and comfortable shoes. We will provide a commemorative t-shirt that will
be worn during the performance.
The participation fee for the 2019 Razorback Alumni Band has been set at $55.00 per
person. The 2019 Alumni Band package includes one ticket, a meal prior to the game,
another meal during the game, a commemorative t shirt, and the opportunity to attend
an SEC-West rivalry game.
For those Alumni that already have tickets to the game or only want to attend the
reception before the game, the Lunch Package is a great option. The Alumni Band Lunch
Package is available for $15.00 and will include admission to the pre-game meal, a
meal in the stands and a commemorative Alumni Band T-Shirt for the participant.
Parking is free and shuttle transportation to the stadium is free. Instruments will
be available and we will do our best to provide you with the equipment you need to
participate.
Kick-off time for the Arkansas vs. Mississippi State football game will not be announced
until two weeks prior to the game, but Alumni Band members can count on plenty of
social time during the morning rehearsal and lunch. All band alumni and their guests
are invited to all of these events. Shuttle buses will continue to run to Baum Stadium
parking after the game.
Please find a tentative schedule HERE and a registration form HERE. Please return the registration form by Friday, October 18 if you would like to participate.
I look forward to seeing you during Alumni Band Weekend. GO HOGS!!!
