Heritage Festivals

Performance travel does great things for you and your department. It fosters enthusiasm for your program within the community. It also earns their greater support and enhances your reputation as a forward-thinking leader in making top talent and technique available to local students.

Every festival performance is adjudicated by a panel of three renowned music professionals. Our adjudicator partners are at the top of their game. They are trained masters at developing skill level and confidence in young performing ensembles. Assessment from multiple adjudicators assures your feedback is a balanced and meaningful critique.

With 50 years of experience, we've taken over 4 million students on educational trips - over 400,000 students traveled with us last year alone! We partner with more than 10,000 K-12 schools and 300 colleges and universities, including the top 30 MBA programs.

We believe in the importance of allowing young performers a venue to push their limits. An event of this caliber attracts talented groups from across the country and around the world. It takes them beyond the local concert setting or regional competition and gives them a place to shine in the national spotlight and network with like-minded musicians.

Students are thrilled to be part of something big. To dance, sing, or play on new stages in new places, and to learn from the best. They tell their friends, and soon everyone around them gets excited. Retaining your students gets easier. Your recruitment gets an energy boost.

Each year we escort 70,000 students to performance destinations across the country and the globe. We offer you unbeatable choices: over 100 yearly festival dates in over 25 cities, seven college bowl options, and virtually unlimited destinations abroad. Whether you are looking for a competitive challenge, a rewarding trip for your ensemble, or a chance to learn from the greats, we've got you covered.
