Summer Band Camp 2025: Registration closed
Calling all brass, woodwind, and percussion players! UNB Summer Band Camp presents an opportunity for these young musicians to meet and play alongside their peers this summer. During the week you’ll find yourself strengthening your knowledge of your instrument, as well as your reading and theory skills.
Develop your musical ear, learn about great players, gain concert stage experience and etiquette, all while working together toward a final ensemble performance in the theatre. Get a head start on next year’s band programming, or simply improve upon what you’ve already begun to learn and meet some new friends along the way.
For 30 years, UNB Summer Music Camp has been providing an exceptional level of music instruction to young learners. Band camp isn’t just for building your confidence and exploring creativity. Camp will be a place for making lifelong friendships with musical peers in our community. We aim for a fun, creative, and supportive environment with time for recreation and socializing.
Ages 11 - 16 | Grades 6 - 10
For young musicians who play a band instrument: Woodwind, brass or percussion.

Schedules can vary, but here is a general schedule:
Drop-off and pick-up will take place at a location to be announced, on the UNB/STU Fredericton Campus. Camps run from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. with an hour lunch break, as well as a morning and afternoon break of approximately 15 minutes.
Important: If there is any reason why you need to drop your child off earlier or pick them up later, we must be notified beforehand, and we will try to make arrangements.
Our camp staff will meet you to get your children signed in. Please allow for extra time at drop-off on the first day.
If you are running late or your child will not be attending camp on a certain day, please call 506-458-7259 or write to musicamp@unb.ca and let us know. If you arrive late, please stay outside in the drop-off area and call 506-458-7259 and someone will come out to meet you.
Pick-up will occur at the same location as drop-off. Please make sure to sign your children out at the end of the day.
If you need to sign your children out early, call us at 506-458-7259 when you arrive and a staff member will bring them out to you.
There is a $10 late pick-up fee for any time after 5 p.m. (within the first 30 minutes) and $10 for every half hour after.
