Band Camp Junior is a week-long day camp for kids in grades 1-6 who want to explore their love of music through games and demonstrations with new friends.
At Band Camp Junior, kids have fun with hands-on introductory workshops with some cool instruments and experience a wide variety of music styles. Campers will try out different types of instruments alongside dedicated music mentors. No musical background is required!

Led by keen musicians and educators, campers enjoy participating a wide variety of musical activities, from bucket drumming to boomwhackers to music theory and everything in between. There’s also typical camp games, projects and team-building activities. At the end of the week, campers take part our end-of-week free mini-concert for parents and friends.
For campers with financial challenges, we have partnered with local community funding organizations and private donors to help subsidize camp fees. Please don’t hesitate to email us at camp@bandology.ca for more details.
