Con Brio Festival, Whistler, BC
Grades 7 to 12

Trip Overview

Students in Grades 7–12 Band and Wind Ensemble will have the option to attend the Con Brio Music Festival in Whistler in April 2026! This three-day trip allows students to work with world-class musicians, perform in professional settings, and be inspired by peers from across BC, Canada, and even internationally. In addition to the festival, the trip will include a special Indigenous cultural experience, offering students meaningful insight into the land, stories, and traditions of local First Peoples. It’s an enriching and fun adventure that combines music, culture, and personal growth, and we truly believe it’s something your child will remember for the rest of their life.

Con Brio Whistler is a non-competitive, nationally respected festival that turns Whistler Village into a massive, walkable music camp. Over the course of the weekend, students will participate in professional adjudicated performances and multiple 50-minute hands-on workshops, hear and support other ensembles, and take part in ensemble intensives led by outstanding faculty.
