IBMA Youth Ambassador

Our goal is to bring young, like-minded musicians together to build relationships that will last a lifetime. IBMA offers a Youth Ambassador membership (FREE). If you will celebrate your 17th birthday in your membership year, or if you are younger than that, you can be an IBMA Youth Ambassador! Please note: Youth Ambassadors are not eligible to vote or to receive discounts for IBMA World of Bluegrass. We will be expanding the benefits for our Youth Ambassadors during 2022 and have exciting plans on the horizon!
