The Annual Convention is in mid-January in Bradenton/Sarasota/ Venice FL. Sarasota was the winter home for the Ringling Bros. Barnum & Bailey Circus, from 1927 – 1959. The Sailor Circus Academy, Ringling Museum, Ca’ D’Zan (built by John & Mable Ringling as their Estate in 1926), and many other attractions are an ideal setting for the Convention. This annual event brings together playing and non-playing members of WJU to embrace and fulfill our mission: Preservation-Education-Performance.

Rehearsal – Pittsburgh PA

WJU’s Annual SUMMER MEET is held mid-July in varying “host” cities around the United States. By changing locations, the venues provide unique backdrops for the preservation of, education about, and performance of music performed in the traditional American circus. The geographical diversity of the Summer Meet allows our mission to be brought to more locations, and increases participation by both playing and non-playing members.

There are also other Windjammer Unlimited activities throughout the year, including performances by both the Windjammers Concert BandTM and the Windjammers Circus BandTM. Many Preservation and Educational Activities are held, usually in conjunction with other National conferences and events, including Circus Fans of America, Circus Historical Society, and others.
