The Brown Band's Centennial

The Brown Band turns 100 in fall of 2024! We would love to host a year jam-packed with fun events, alumni reunions, and more! This page will act as the hub of centennial events and fundraising!

Events

University Commencement 2025, May 2025

We had a great time at Commencement with everybody! We had a full house for the big day on the Faunce porch and a wonderful turnout for our Opening Reception and BBQ beforehand. Thank you so much for coming and helping to maintain the Band's 100 year winning streak!

Centennial Alumni Game + Gala, September 28th, 2024

Thank you for making our Centennial Game such a success! With over 200 bandies on the field, we helped Brown be victorious over the Harvard Crimson!

Brown also wrote a lovely article detailing the event.
