The UW Varsity Band is led by conductor Corey Pompey.

You don't have to be a Badger to love the UW Varsity Band. There's something thrilling about this much sound welling up, that much brass blasting. The spring band concert gives the spotlight to the band, sans football. This year's music includes “Bohemian Wait for It,” “Country Classics” and “The Music of Panic at the Disco.” Yes, “If You Want to Be a Badger” is on the docket and frankly we would be shocked if “Varsity” didn't make an appearance. Director Corey Pompey is in charge; ticket sales benefit the Badger Band program.

press release: Friday, April 22 & Saturday, April 23, 7:30 PM, at the UW–Madison Kohl Center.

Each season the University of Wisconsin Band reaches Badgers fans across the state and beyond – from UW Marching Band halftime shows at football games to UW Varsity Band appearances at volleyball, hockey, and basketball games. In the spring semester the band offers runout concerts that bring Badger Spirit to communities across the state and celebrate with a culminating annual UW Varsity Band Spring Concert at the Kohl Center.

The band is excited to welcome fans back to the concert after a two-year hiatus due to the pandemic. Honoring Badger Band traditions and featuring new halftime charts, the April 2022 UW Varsity Band Spring Concert will appeal to Badger Band fans of all ages.

Highlights for this year’s show include “Bohemian Wait for It,” “Country Classics” and “The Music of Panic at the Disco” along with long-time favorites like “Space Badgers,” “If You Want to Be a Badger” and our signature Badger Band Finale. Get your tickets now and help us welcome Director Corey Pompey and the 2021-2022 Badger Band back to the Kohl Center. All proceeds benefit the Badger Band program.
