A band camp typically refers to a high school, college, or university marching band summer camp. Band camp is often mandatory for members of the band, and constitutes the majority of the preparation a marching band makes before its marching season. A high school marching band may travel to a college or university for band camp for use of its facilities (dormitories, fieldhouses, fields) and services. The time at band camp is used for focused rehearsals and time for bonding between band members.
Band camp might also be used to refer to an individual camp where participants focus on developing their own musical skill, in which case it would more likely be called a music camp.
