Bring a Group!
Students from Wood Dale Junior High School enjoy a Northshore Concert Band performance.
Shared experiences become memories that last a lifetime!
Bring a group to the winter concert of our 2025/26 season! Join us on February 22, 2026, for In Good Company, an inspiring program celebrating friendship, global traditions, and the joy of making music together.
The musicians of Northshore Concert Band represent many professional backgrounds, and approximately half are professional music educators; the rest have a diverse set of occupations. They demonstrate to younger musicians that there are opportunities for them to play and enjoy their instruments their entire lives, regardless of whether they choose a musical vocation.
Student groups attending a program of world-class music submerge into an invaluable cultural experience that might be out of their familiar comforts and habits, giving them a unique taste of the world around them.
Adult and Senior groups of 10 or more can experience the musical excellence of the Northshore Concert Band at special group rates, making these unforgettable performances affordable and accessible for music lovers of all ages!
BRING A GROUP OF 10 OR MORE AND SAVE!
When you bring a group, it’s easy and inexpensive to experience the world-renowned Northshore Concert Band. Senior groups pay only $10 per person, and Student groups pay only $5 each. Let us help you plan your group outing —contact us today!
