The Penn State Blue Band

The Pennsylvania State University Marching Blue Band is recognized as one of the nation's finest college marching bands and performs to capacity crowds in 107,232 seat Beaver Stadium — home of Penn State Nittany Lion football. The Blue Band has performed at every major bowl game in the U.S., including the Rose Bowl and the Tournament of Roses Parade.

For more than 120 years, the Blue Band has exemplified the spirit of Penn State through its trademark drills and soaring instrumentals. The band’s reliable precision and unmistakable sound is indelible in the mind and heart of every Penn Stater, but the band’s ability to bring people together is what truly sets it apart.
