JMU Pep Band High School Band Day Registration - JMU Pep Band Day 2026

Pep Band Day January 24th, 2026

*Registration must be completed by Midnight January 18th to guarantee having a T-shirt in your size for the event. Late registrations will be available from January 19th until January 22nd *

Tipoff time for this game is 4pm, and we are currently in the process of working with ESPN and the AUBC to build a pregame rehearsal schedule for the band. As soon as we have finalized details, we will update the info on our website, as well as send an email to registered participants. For now, please plan to Check-in sometime around 10am. Thank you for your patience and understanding as we work through these important and exciting logistics!

The schedule will include:

• Check-in window
• Two complimentary General Admission tickets to the game (to be picked up at Check-in): one ticket for the participant, and one ticket for a parent/guardian chaperone.
• One meal voucher to eat at E-Hall (one of our campus dining halls) between our rehearsal and the game. If parents or family members wish to visit E-Hall, admission costs approximately $15/person (credit cards accepted).

• Rehearsal in the AUBC arena
• Meal at E-Hall (across the street from the AUBC)
• Pregame call time

All registrants who register by January 18th will receive:

• One JMU High School Pep Band Day shirt (to be worn with black pants as the performance attire for the event).

LATE REGISTRATION open Monday 1/19 through Thursday 1/22.

Our Late Registration window will remain open through midnight on Thursday, 1/22. Participants who register late will still receive a meal voucher and two General Admission tickets, but our inventory of HS Band Day shirts may run out. Late registrants are asked to wear a purple shirt to the event in case we cannot provide a T-shirt.
