Description
The Hornucopia Festival is a new festival featuring the best horn and brass driven bands in the Bay Area and beyond for two weeks of mind blowing, soul shaking shows, workshops and presentations. Taking place September 4th  14th at 9 different Bay Area venues, The Hornucopia Festival is a celebration of the historic and contemporary power of horn and brass music to bring people together while exuberantly bridging genres, languages, borders and cultures. With educational workshops, a DIY parade, and over 30 eclectic bands, The Hornucopia Festival will bring together music as diverse as Gypsy Brass to Afrobeat, Marching Bands to Cartoon Bands, Punk Rock Polka to New Orleans 2nd line, delighting hot and cool Jazz cats, klezmorim, soul stirrers and salseros alike in one brassy, horny celebration.

The Hornucopia Festival is also a non-profit effort to benefit community organizations through a free music workshop, an educational presentation on the provocative history of brass and horn music, and as a fundraiser for two worthy causes: delivering new instruments into the hands of beleaguered youth second line bands in New Orleans and raising money for a humanitarian circus that presents free shows and workshops to refugee children in Kosovo. A portion of your ticket will go to support these causes. Thanks!

And now......The Full Festival Pass!
Bring on the cornucopia of all the horns and brass with a limited issue Full Festival Pass which will grant you access to all hornucopia festival presented shows including special pluses like a limited edition poster, music compilation and more. A portion of your ticket will also go to benefit our efforts to get instruments into the hands of New Orleans Youth Second Line Bands.

Your festival pass will grant you access to just the shows produced by the festival which are listed below.

***PLEASE NOTE: All shows not in this list are featured by the festival and require a seperate ticket. Additional Tickets for these shows can be found at  www.hornucopiafestival.org.***
