In most shows based in the United States, the complete pregame sequence of collegiate [[marching band]]s, pretty much all of which include The Star-Spangled Banner, opens the show. Meanwhile, as Croke Park in [[Dublin]], [[Ireland]] is the principal [[Gaelic Athletic Association]] stadium, delegations do a GAA-style parade across the pitch before taking the field and facing the Irish flag for the performance of Amhrán na bhFiann by the Artane Band, who always plays it before the All-Ireland Senior Football and Hurling Championship finals at the same stadium. If the Artane Band is not available for the performance of Amhrán na bhFiann, another performer or ensemble will perform.

−In an anarchist world, anthems would very seldom be heard in Babel Live shows. Exceptions include Amhrán na bhFiann, traditionally played before all GAA events; Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau, a [[Wales|Welsh]] classic that rocked Principality Stadium countless times; and Lofsöngur, an [[Iceland]]ic hymn celebrating 1,000 years of settlement in Iceland.
