The TUMB Returns!

Tulane University is looking forward to getting back together on campus in August 2020 after such an unprecedented Spring semester. The TUMB will hit the ground running to prepare for the 100th Anniversary of Tulane Bands! The band camp schedule will be subject to change depending on Tulane, New Orleans, Louisiana, and CDC guidelines.

As of this posting, the TUMB will no longer have its usual full band camp. There will be some instruction and activities for incoming Freshmen members during their orientation, and full band rehearsals will begin with the start of the semester.

The TUMB will be following and exceeding precautions set by Tulane University and local, state, and federal guidelines with the primary goal of providing a fulfilling band experience for our members in the safest way possible.

Arrival Schedule

Freshman TUMB members will arrive with “group 1” of incoming Freshmen for COVID-19 testing and protocols. All other TUMB members will arrive with the rest of their class as per Tulane University move-in schedules.
