Ireland Pub Crawl Information Coming Soon!

The K-State Little Apple Pub Crawl Band is a spirited ensemble that brings Wildcat energy to the Manhattan community on Friday nights before home football games. Comprising enthusiastic student musicians from various majors, the band performs lively renditions of K-State favorites like the "Wabash Cannonball" throughout local establishments in Aggieville, Downtown, and the East and West sides of town. Their performances create an electrifying atmosphere, uniting fans and fostering school spirit across the city.

Under the direction of the band directors, and led on Friday nights by the graduate assistants, the Pub Crawl Band offers students a unique opportunity to engage with the community through music. Participants receive a scholarship, a commemorative t-shirt, and meals provided by local businesses after each event. As a "dry" ensemble, the band promotes a fun and respectful environment, ensuring that the tradition of spreading purple pride remains inclusive and enjoyable for all.​
