HOTS International Tours

Approximately every two years, HOTS takes a two-week tour overseas. These tours are open first to current members and their families and friends and then to the general public -- anyone who wants to come along and be a part of our tour. We only take between 24 and 30 people so that the trip's focus remains on the band and its performances. Trips are announced up to a year in advance and are advertised widely within the local dance and music community. All fees are collected prior to departure.

At right, click and read articles and view pictures of our recent foreign trips. If you think you might like to participate in our trips, read the trip flier for our 2007 trip to New Zealand. The Flier tells how our tours operate, what is expected, sets forth the terms and conditions, and tells how to pack or otherwise prepare for our trips. We expect that future trips will be much the same.

If you are interested in going with us on a future trip, please contact us. We will tour New Zealand's South Island in February 2007 finishing at Napier's Art Deco Weekend, the returning via Tahiti. Other destinations are possible if we can develop contacts in the country who can help us find opportunities to perform. We would be particularly interested in hearing from persons who know citizens in the areas of our destinations who play in bands and orchestras as a hobby.
