LOYO – Simi Valley Campus

Welcome to LOYO Simi Valley, our satellite campus for young musicians in the Simi Valley and Chatsworth Areas.

Our satellite campuses give students the opportunity to begin high-level orchestral training, allowing them to prepare for our advanced ensembles at our main campus in an affordable and local setting.

Students perform in December in the LOYO Simi Winter Concert and alongside our large ensembles in our June Gala Concert at the grand stage of the Kavli Theatre in Thousand Oaks.

LOYO Simi Campus live auditions are held at our main campus before a panel of our Directors. We recommend students interested in leadership positions to play an official live audition. Younger members may choose to play a less formal “sit-in” audition on the first day of rehearsal.

Live auditions are held the first two weekends of August. If the auditions have already passed, you may play an audition at the first day of rehearsal to confirm your seating.
