CANCELED: UW Varsity Band

press release:

We regret to inform you that under the guidance of public health and medical professionals, the University of Wisconsin-Madison Campus and Mead Witter School of Music have decided to cancel the 2020 UW Varsity Band Spring Concert due to concerns over the coronavirus.

Class instruction for all courses is moving online with face-to-face meetings and all large group gatherings and events on campus cancelled from March 14 through at least April 10. No face-to-face classes means the Badger Band won’t be able to meet and rehearse for at least the next four weeks and that all community runout concerts are cancelled as well.

A full statement by the University can be found at: https://covid19.wisc.edu

TICKET REFUNDS

The UW Athletic Department will be issuing full refunds in the coming days. Please allow up to 10 business days for your funds to be available for use as the Varsity Band Spring Concert is only one of a number of large scale events that they are working with.
