ITEC 2025
Valencia (Spain) has been designated by the International Tuba and Euphonium Association (ITEA) as the venue for the International Tuba Euphonium Conference (ITEC), which will be held from June 23-29, 2025 in partnership with the Spanish Tuba and Euphonium Association (AETYB) as a host:
- June 23-25, 2025 – ITEC Competitions
- June 25-29, 2025 – Conference Festivities (performances, presentations, workshops, exhibits)
Valencia is a city that opens onto the Mediterranean Sea and combines tradition with modernity, has great cultural activity, is welcoming to the millions of people who visit it every year, is full of fun, and has an exquisite gastronomy to welcome the artists who will attend this conference. In terms of music, the city has the necessary facilities for a conference of this magnitude, it has a professional orchestra and band, numerous high-level amateur bands in the surrounding area, countless hotels to stay in, and connections to the main airports of the world.
The Palau de la Música, venue of ITEC Spain 2025, is the most representative place in Valencia for the musicians of the region, as it is home to the city’s Orchestra and Band. It has magnificent concert halls and facilities to carry out all the activities required at an ITEC. It also has important added extras such as a loading bay, public parking (by the hour) and its own restaurant. The Palau is located next to the Turia riverbed promenade in the center of Valencia, in an area with numerous cafés, restaurants and hotels, where it is easy to stay and easy to get to from any point in the City.
ITEC Spain 2025 aims to be a meeting place where artists, educators, students, amateurs, composers, manufacturers, vendors and the rest of the members of our collective can express our concerns, worries and projects related to the future of the euphonium and the tuba. A future in which inclusion, equity and fellowship are fundamental values for our community, where every voice counts, and every perspective enriches the way forward regardless of nationality, gender, sexual orientation, religion or age. Let us adopt a pluralistic vision of the world we live in, capable of uniting us for common causes and preserving our traditions, roots and customs as part of the cultural diversity that enriches humanity.
Half a century ago, our founders established the ITEA to promote and advance the tuba and euphonium. Our instruments have flourished considerably since our founding thanks to the collaboration of performers, composers, builders, repairers, retailers, publishers, programmers and others. To make further progress, it is crucial that we realize the importance of this collaboration between all of us who make up this great family. Therefore, we must explore together how to move forward on the road to a prosperous future for the euphonium and tuba, where we and our instruments reach the highest artistic heights.
Let us continue to build our future with determination and never stop believing in our dreams.
We are looking forward to welcoming you all in Valencia, Spain!
