Performance Tours for Students

Perform or compete at events around the country! Destinations like Texas, Orlando, and New York offer great opportunities for your students to show off their skills and see the sites at the same time.

Compete in the regional or national competitions. Perform for a panel of adjudicators at a festival. March in parades across the country, from the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York City, to the Cherry Blossom Parade in Washington D.C., to the Rose Parade in California. You could even march down the streets of Dublin in the St. Patrick’s Day Parade. Whether you seek to plan a marching band competition or a trip for pure musical enjoyment, we can help!

Whatever your interest or wherever you want to go, performance opportunities for your band, choir, orchestra and dancers are endless! ETA is here to help plan your marching band trips and show choir competition travel arrangements—so the students can focus on performing!

Learn from the pros with a clinic, masterclass or workshop in band, orchestra, choir, dance, or theatre. Your students will have the unique opportunity to work and be coached by artists currently working at the top of their field!

Theatre and dance workshops such as dance break, stage combat, improvisation, audition technique, and ensemble musical theater taught by Broadway professionals await in New York City.

Instrumental masterclasses from top clinicians around the country are available in virtually any city where any tour can become a performance tour!

Your students can audition to perform on a Broadway stage alongside professional Broadway performers for a live audience in one of our exclusive concerts! Actually on Broadway you ask? Yes!
