The San Diego State University Marching Aztecs is one of the premiere collegiate marching bands in the west. Renowned for its musicality, pageantry, and commitment to excellence, this highly respected campus organization performs in Qualcomm Stadium at all SDSU home football games, as well as National Football League games, high school band tournaments, and other campus and community events. The Marching Aztecs enter the public arena as ambassadors of SDSU's standards of excellence; the sights and sounds identifying an obvious focal point of Aztec pride and spirit. Members of the Marching Aztecs represent over 30 academic majors and hail from a wide variety of locales.

Membership in the Marching Aztecs requires competency in basic levels of musicianship and marching. While the SDSU Drumline and Colorguard do hold "placement auditions" (see schedule page), there are no auditions required for the Marching Aztecs winds. ALL Marching Aztecs wind, percussion, colorguard, and dance team members receive a stipend at the end of the marching season (provided minimum attendance and participation standards are met). Stipend amount is based on Marching Band enrollment; we anticipate that current season stipend will be in the $200 to $250 range.

You do not need to be a matriculated SDSU student to march with us. Musicians, Colorguard, and Dance Team members who are not current SDSU students are required enroll in the Marching Band course (2 units) through the College of Extended Studies at a GREATLY reduced course rate. Non-matriculated SDSU students who enroll through Extended Studies are also available for the $200+ stipend, which covers the enrollment fee. So, we are paying YOU to march!
