The Bowie Baysox will host live auditions at Prince George's Stadium on Saturday, April 1, 2023 to perform the national anthem before a 2023 Baysox home game. Stadium gates will open for registration at 9:00 a.m. and auditions will begin soon. The team will feature a live performance of "The Star-Spangled Banner" before all 69 home games this season, something that has done for all home games since 1994.

Every participant must register in person on the day of the event, and auditions will be conducted on a first-come, first-audition basis. The auditions will be held rain or shine. National Anthem word/lyric sheets will not be permitted to be used during the audition process nor will they be permitted to be used by those selected to perform the anthem on a game date. All auditions must be done in person. No recordings or videos will be accepted as an audition. People who either performed or were approved to perform during the 2022 season do not have to audition again this year.

The auditions are open to any individual or small group that is interested. Auditions are open to singers and instrumentalists.

Large groups such as school or church organizations interested in performing the national anthem at a game should call the Baysox at (301) 464-4880 during regular business hours, Monday through Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and speak with a member of our Group Events department.

The Baysox season begins April 6 against Hartford, and the Home Opener will be on Tuesday, April 11 against Akron. Individual tickets sales for the 2023 season at Prince George’s Stadium will be available starting March 25 at the Baysox Free Family FunFest. Full and Partial Season Ticket packages and Group Tickets are now available. For more information, please call (301) 805-6000 or visit Baysox.com for more information.
