No Notre Dame band for Fiesta Bowl
Notre Dame will be without a famed part of its football tradition in Saturday’s Fiesta Bowl as their band will not be making the trip from South Bend to Glendale, Arizona. The official Notre Dame band Twitter account announced that information on Wednesday.
The decision has made been that we will not travel for the @Fiesta_Bowl. We will be cheering on @Marcus_Freeman1 & @NDFootball each step of the way!
Thank you to each and every one of our seniors who have sacrificed so much and worked so hard. Always and forever, Love Thee.☘️ pic.twitter.com/GRxBEJjdOu

With COVID cases again rising we’re guessing that is the reason for the band’s trip being halted. It’s a shame for anyone in the group but especially the seniors and not hearing the “Notre Dame Victory March” at a Fighting Irish bowl game will certainly be strange.
