Facilities
The home of the Carolina Band is on the University of South Carolina campus at 324 Sumter St. On April 26, 2009, the University of South Carolina opened a state-of-the-art facility dedicated to its 300-member marching band and a newly accredited dance program. The $9.8 million complex features practice areas, rehearsal rooms, storage for band instruments/uniforms and an adjacent 110-yard long practice field complete with field lighting and a three-story observation tower. The main level building plan is organized around a series of large practice areas and dance studios along the field-side to the north. Smaller offices and support spaces are located to the south.
