The NAMM Show is going right now. The air is clear here in Anaheim, and the fires are quite a few miles away.
Long Beach is also quite a ways from any of the fires, and I don't see any smoke plume in that direction.
The Horn Guys location in Pasadena, on the other hand, is less than three miles from the edge of the Eaton fire evacuation zone. As of this morning, that fire is 95% contained, so I would expect everything to go on as planned (though I'd suggest keeping an eye on the Horn Guys social media for updates if you're planning to attend.
Trombone Day is too far off to anticipate.
Given the number of people displaced, either temporarily or permanently, by the fires, it's a real possibility that there are individuals who are expected to participate who have far more important things to worry about right now.

The UN says London is a Music City…
https://www.londoncityofmusic.ca/
I post this link with my tongue mostly in cheek. Not many in Canada’s London fully understand how this designation makes sense, but there it is.
For anyone who comes, the Western University campus is sprawling and green. The music building is a beautiful stone structure.
For leisure I’d recommend a stroll through one of the ESA’s
https://london.ca/ESA or Springbank Park. If you’re a runner, following the Thames Valley Parkway is a great way to get an overview of the best of the city AND the homeless encampments hidden in the bush.
At any rate, the couple ITF’s I’ve been to were quite insular anyway and were about the clinics and concerts, not the background sites to see.

Hopefully someone who has the connections to get it fixed will notice soon.
