Abstract	COVID-19 mitigations significantly altered college marching band operations during the fall 2020 football season. Modified band operations may have affected students' sense of community and togetherness. The purpose of this study was to investigate college marching band students' perceptions of community and other band experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic. College marching band students (N = 765) from 10 universities across the United States responded to survey questions related to several aspects of pandemic marching band operations, including (a) mitigation strategies, (b) perceived mitigation effectiveness, (c) band community, (d) perceived band experiences, and (e) the extent to which some aspects of band modifications could continue postpandemic. Results indicated that feelings of community and opportunities for togetherness in marching band were substantially reduced during the pandemic. Implications including the importance of music performance, virtual learning, and monitoring of student physical and mental health are discussed. (As Provided).
