Small Bands - Application Form
This form is ONLY for Small Bands, i.e. less than 8 members, to register interest in playing at the Festival. (Big Bands should use the Big Band application form.) Applications close 11 April 2025.
Thank you for taking the time applying to play at this year’s Inverloch Jazz Festival. The music director will take the time to assess all applications. Priority will be be given to availability, genre, the limit of musicians to three bands maximum, and compatibility with the overall festival plan.
Please note that to keep the festival viable for 2025 and into the future, the IJF committee has found it necessary to scale back in some areas. The major decision that affects musicians is we will now only operate four venues over the weekend, which means fewer slots are available. We sincerely hope that this will enable us to give performers more of a share in any surplus to help cover some of the cost of attending (we allow approx $130 per musician/$1000 total for big bands), although nothing can be guaranteed as the surplus is directly related to ticket sales.
Each band must complete and submit the form below. The music director will contact the band leader using the contact details details below to advise acceptance or not. Once acceptances have been sent out to band leaders, you will be asked to get each of the band members to register with their own details using a separate form.
