30 Hour Music Marathon
This fundraising effort will culminate in a 30 Hour Music Marathon held on the weekend of 27th July. The Music Marathon will feature AYB, Drumline, Big Band, JAYB, and our stellar individual musicians as we prepare for the international stage.
The Australian Youth Band, a group of extraordinary young musicians, returns to international touring in December 2025.
Our mission is to raise funds for coach transport to performances, rehearsals, and activities whilst in Thailand and we need your help.
