Marching Band Experience

Feel the energy of Homecoming game day from the sidelines—and the field!

High school juniors and seniors are invited to join the Marching Comets for a one-of-a-kind opportunity to experience college band life firsthand. You’ll perform alongside our musicians during a home football game, learn from our band staff, and experience the excitement of being part of the Olivet community.

Whether you’ve always dreamed of marching with a college band or you’re simply curious what it’s like, this is your chance to step into the role of a Marching Comet for a day.

Your experience includes:

• Music provided in advance so you can prepare before game day
• A rehearsal with Marching Comets staff after kickoff
• The opportunity to sit with the Marching Comets during the game (color guard, winds, percussion)
• Performing with the band during halftime on the field (color guard, winds)
• Playing crowd favorites throughout the game
• Free admission to the game and an exclusive Marching Comets T-shirt

High school seniors who participate will also receive a $2,000 Visit Day Scholarship.
