Rhode Island Wind Ensemble Tickets

Since 1969, Rhode Island Wind Ensemble (RIWE) has brought engaging, accessible orchestral wind music to communities across Rhode Island and beyond. Comprising roughly 50–60 adult musicians, RIWE delivers a versatile repertoire—from traditional wind-band works to film and TV scores, jazz, Broadway, and contemporary commissions. The ensemble emphasizes works by underrepresented composers, making each concert both entertaining and socially meaningful. RIWE typically offers free or pay-what-you-are-able performances with donations encouraged at the door, ensuring music is accessible to all. Follow RIWE to stay in the loop on upcoming events and community initiatives that support local students and instruments in need.

Upcoming highlights for the 2025–2026 season include seven concerts across Cranston, Scituate, Providence, Newport, and Fall River. A standout event is Made in America on February 15, 2026, at the Newport Marriott. In addition to performances, RIWE runs impactful programs such as the Music Pathways initiative with Mount Pleasant High School and the Band Instrument Renewal Drive (BIRD), which restores and redistributes instruments to new players.
