From October 17 to 19, Bucaramanga will be the epicenter of band music with the III Colombian Conference of Bands Asodibandas 2025. Under the slogan “More strength, more knowledge and more music”, this meeting will bring together musicians, directors, cultural managers and experts of the sector in a space for training, reflection and celebration of the art of band music.
The event is possible thanks to the articulation between Iberorquestas Juveniles, the Ministry of Cultures, Arts and Knowledge, the Universidad Industrial de Santander (UIS) and the Asociación Colombiana de Directores de Bandas (Asodibandas), institutions committed to strengthening musical education processes and the circulation of Colombian sound heritage.
For three days, participants will be able to enjoy keynote lectures, specialized workshops, open rehearsals, musical samples, panel discussions and academic activities aimed at promoting the integral development of the band movement in Colombia.
The conference is open to music teachers, band members, researchers, students and other actors of the music ecosystem interested in enriching their knowledge and sharing experiences. Registrations are now available through the following form: https://forms.gle/BXYbmYb6iN6PN13D9
The UIS community is preparing to enthusiastically welcome the protagonists of this meeting that, in addition to strengthening musical technique and training, reaffirms the cultural and social importance of bands as a living expression of our regions.
