Registration is now closed.

One hundred fifty never looked so good!
Join the UMass Amherst Alumni Association as it celebrates the UMass Minuteman Marching Band (UMMB) for the kickoff event to its 150th-anniversary celebration. Not only is it the UMMB 150th anniversary, but also its return to eastern Massachusetts—on the Mount Ida Campus of UMass Amherst!

Sip on your beverage of choice and gather with friends old and new as you jam out to UMMB hits from the past. UMMB TTA will give his preview of the 2023 season and you’ll hear from other various UMMB names, past and present. Plus, UMMB will present a 150th-anniversary video tribute from its A/V & History staff and unveil the “Top 10 Moments in UMMB History” as voted on by YOU.

Any donations above and beyond your ticket purchase will go to the UMMB’s $150K for 150 Years alumni campaign. As part of our 150th anniversary, the UMMB Alumni is launching $150K for 150 Years as the start of an endowment to ensure the next 150 years of our organization.

So, what are you waiting for? Fill out your 150th Anniversary iBander and get ready to ooga-booga all night long!
