Directors - Logistics

Directors, 

We look forward to your participation in the 2024 Red Rocks Utah State Marching Band Championships! This year we are excited to once again host Red Rocks at Utah Tech University in the Greater Zion Stadium!

Please read the following information thoroughly and if you have any questions, please reach out to John Miller, the UMEA Competition Coordinator.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

PARKING

BUS PARKING

Due to limited space, all busses will need to park off campus.

TRUCK/TRAILER PARKING

Trucks and trailers will be parked in the lot just east of the stadium and can enter the parking area from the east on 400 South. Parking staff will direct all trucks and trailers to an assigned parking area. Parking in this area is limited to equipment trucks/trailers, support vehicles must park off campus.

WARMUP/ADDITIONAL BAND PRACTICE

Musical Warm-up and Color Guard Equipment Warm-up are only allowed in the official warm-up areas during your assigned warm-up times.

TICKETING/ENTRANCE

There are limited seats available in the west stands, particularly in the afternoon and evening. Since last year, the University has added seats in all areas that have previously only had cement bench seating.  While this adds to the comfort of those in the stands, even fewer spectators will be able to squeeze into the stands. In order to manage the limited seating, ONLY SPECTATORS WITH A WRIST BAND WILL BE ADMITTED TO THE WEST STANDS. All students and staff watching other performances must enter the stadium at the east entrance and watch from the stands on the east side.

ADMINISTRATION: UHSAA passes can be used to obtain tickets at the box office.

Staff, boosters, pit helpers, etc. must be properly credentialed with a UMEA Field pass to get onto the field and into the stands.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

• Performing Bands will be directed to enter the stadium as shown on the Stadium Map.

• After the previous band's performance has ended, bands may stage, as directed, behind the goal line. This includes staging in the end zone.

• At the conclusion of the band's performance, please use a Bass Drum tap only, and cease when the band is off the field.

• No Gas, Diesel or Electric powered vehicles will be allowed in the stadium.
