The Oregon State University Marching Band performs at all Oregon State University home and bowl games. During these game days, the marching band begins their day with a pre-performance rehearsal. During this rehearsal, the band will briefly rehearse the halftime show and the pre-game sequence. After rehearsal, the band will set up a parade block to prepare for the "Beaver Walk" (an event where the football team walks west on SW Ralph Miller Street. Prior to the start of the game,the band congregates inside Reser Stadium for an on-field pregame performance. The only exception to this is Civil War at OSU. Instead of a parading, the band will meet with the Oregon Marching Band face-to-face for Battle of the Bands.
