Festivals, Band Camps, and Other EventsOur members host many events of their own. This calendar lists many of the Festivals, Band Camps, and other opportunities for musicians. Festivals come in all shapes and sizes from a day in the park with several bands performing (some with opportunities for individual musicians) to multi-day events with music, clinics and more. Then there are weekend or week long events just for individuals to perform under a well known conductor which may also include clinics, master classes, and speakers. Some festivals happen in the same month every year, so are listed below in the appropriate month, and specific dates will be updated. Members, to share your Festival information, please email [email protected] COVID-19 Impact: With many events cancelled in 2020 and 2021 due to the COVID-19 Pandemic, we are leaving the information on this page about those events that have not yet returned for 2023. 2022 Events remain listed until an updated event for 2023 has been entered. 2023 CalendarJanuary 2023January 10-15: Windjammers Winter Convention February 2023March 2023March 4: The Red Cedar Festival of Community Bands March 11: East Coast Band Conference March 25: Three Rivers Community Band Festival April 2023April 22-23: Virginia Community Music Festival May 2023May 17-20: ACB Convention in Orlando Florida June 2023June 3-4 National Community Band Festival June 10: Boston Festival of Bands June 11-17: Band Camp For Adult Musicians (Week 1) June 14-18: Jazz At The Summit - Jazz Band June 21-25: Music At The Summit - Concert Band June 25-July 1: Band Camp For Adult Musicians (Week 2) July 2023July 6-9: John Philip Sousa Foundation’s National Community Band July 8: Annual Iowa Municipal Band Festival July 11-16: Windjammers Summer Meet July 15: Lake George Community Band Festival July 19-22: Blue Lake Summer Camp for Adults Concert Band July 28-29: Community Band by the Sea (Concert Rain Date: July 30) August 2023August 3-5: Upper Peninsula Community Band Festival August 9-12: Blue Lake Summer Camp for Adults Concert Band September 2023September 15-17: Harold J.
