What started as a spontaneous jam session among WEFTEC attendees has grown into one of the water community’s most beloved traditions — bringing together water professionals, live music, and a shared mission to support global water, sanitation, and hygiene initiatives.
Jammin’4Water is where the water community comes together a little differently.
For one night before WEFTEC, industry professionals take the stage – performing, connecting, and raising funds for causes that extend the impact of our work far beyond the conference.
It’s part concert, part reunion, part fundraiser, and entirely powered by the people who make this industry what it is.
What to Expect
Live Music From the Water Community
Jammin’4Water features eclectic performances by amateur musicians from across the water sector. Expect a wide range of genres, two stages, and plenty of familiar faces showing a different side of themselves.
A Different Kind of Networking
This is WEFTEC connection without the badge-scanning energy. Meet colleagues, clients, partners, and friends in a setting that feels more like a night out than a business event.
New Orleans Energy
Held at Generations Hall, the 2026 event brings Jammin’4Water to a venue built for music, celebration, and the kind of atmosphere that makes New Orleans the perfect place to kick off WEFTEC week.
Purpose Behind Every Performance
Every ticket, sponsorship, and donation helps support global water, sanitation, and hygiene charities, along with the WEF Service Project organized by the Students and Young Professionals Committee.
Turning One Night of Music Into Global Impact
Over the past 12 years, Jammin’4Water has helped raise more than $600,000 for water-focused charities and service initiatives around the world.
Past beneficiaries have included organizations such as Water For People, Water.org, charity: water, Engineers Without Borders, Wine To Water, Surge for Water, the WEF Service Project, and many others working to improve access to clean water, sanitation, hygiene, and quality of life.
In 2026, Jammin’4Water aims to provide $100,000 in charitable donations.
When the water community takes the stage, the impact reaches far beyond the room.
