Tiger Band Hall Dedication

On April 26, LSU unveiled its new home for "The Golden Band from Tigerland," officially cutting the ribbon on the new Tiger Band Hall facility at an event hosted by the LSU College of Music & Dramatic Arts.


The 17,740-square-foot complex, located on Aster Street near Highland Road and just beyond the campus' north gates, will be used by for rehearsals by the Tiger Band and the LSU School of Music's entire band area, including the Wind Ensemble, Symphonic Winds and Symphonic Band concert groups.

"The new Tiger Band Hall is a welcome addition to support a very visible entity that is closely identified with the spirit, identity, pride and passion of LSU," said Laurence Kaptain, dean of the LSU College of Music & Dramatic Arts. "This will be the fourth building in the LSU College of Music & Dramatic Arts, and our faculty and students will benefit greatly from the much needed space for storage and rehearsals as well as the teaching, learning and creativity that emanates from our band program and other areas."
