Hello, everyone! International Trombone Week is coming up. This year’s “official” week is April 12-19, 2026... but we’ll celebrate in March, April, and beyond. 
Please join us by adding your trombone event—whether online, live-streamed, hybrid, or in-person—and make it accessible to as many people as possible.
