Rusty Musicians: Summer Camp

Best-Seller Details to come in Early 2027

For Ages 18+ | July 7-11, 2027

Are you a musician who hasn't picked up their instrument in a while? Or maybe you practice regularly, but you’re looking for an opportunity to play in an ensemble and learn from established players? Maybe it’s just time to take a break from your busy professional life and focus on your love of music!

For five days every summer, adult musicians from Edmonton and surrounding communities come together to play, rehearse, learn and connect in an intensive and fun environment at the Winspear Centre. With expert instruction from members of the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra and other professional musicians, this camp provides a unique opportunity for classes, rehearsals, and sectional instruction – all leading up to a performance on the stage of our exceptional concert hall!

Join us and fall in love with music-making all over again.

Registration is now closed for 2026. Please check back next year.

We welcome all levels of musicianship at camp and strive to create an inclusive and supportive environment for orchestral music making. In order to fully participate in all aspects of the program, we recommend that participants be able to fluently read music and have a grasp of fundamentals on their instrument.
