The 2018 International Trombone Festival A Major Success!!

The 2018 ITF was held at the University of Iowa in Iowa City, Iowa from July 11-14, 2018.  The hosts of the festival were Jonathan Allen and David Gier.

The festival had the largest attendance and vendor participation in the history of the ITF!

The breathtaking, newly constructed $198-million Voxman Music Building is a state-of-the-art music facility, covering a massive 190,000 square feet, across five floors, and is home to a variety of outstanding performing venues.

The University of Iowa is located in the heart of downtown Iowa City. While Iowa is mostly known for its well-known agricultural export, Iowa City is a city of the arts. In addition to being home to several art galleries and performances spaces, Iowa City is also a UNESCO City of Literature, the only city in the United States with this distinction.

With dorms, hotels, restaurants, and lots of other amenities within a short walking distance, and welcoming spaces within the Voxman Building, the UI College of Music was an excellent meeting place for the ITF community.
