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 due to the COVID-19 Pandemic, we are leaving the information here. Some are hoping to return in 2021 while others may wait until 2022 depending on the circumstances of their location, venue, volunteers, etc. 2021 CalendarJanuary 2021 January 12 – 17: Windjammers Annual Convention February 2021March 2021April 2021May 2021May 15: Virginia Community Music Festival June 2021July 2021July 8 - 11: John Philip Sousa Foundation’s National Community Band July 30 - 31: Community Band by the Sea Performance August 2021September 2021September 17-19: Harold J.
