Everything you need to know about the venue access.
We understand and appreciate the planning required around dance competitions, especially when you are travelling from out of town. We have many resources available to studios and dance families. To understand and utilise them, it is essential that you understand our process. We have a timeline in place for studios to allow us to build performance order and studios to review their registration. We produce the final schedule for studios thirty (30) days out. For dance families, there is a General Schedule available from the event page for each competition. Also, you can locate it on the Calendar of Events page. We publish this in advance, but it is subject to change and finalised along with the studio schedule.
The Event App is an incredible resource as well. It is available approximately thirty (30) days prior and has the full schedule. When purchasing the App, you will get access to this information right away. The App also has some excellent features you should check out on our Event App page.
The General Schedule for each event is posted well in advance on the event page for each competition for planning purposes. It is subject to change and finalised 30 days out when we publish the event app.
Programs may be pre-ordered by a studio and will be on sale throughout the competition in the lobby at the merchandise table. The program pre-order is our attempt to both ensure everyone has an opportunity to get a program and reduce waste from over-printing.
The Event App is made available within a few days of the completion of the final schedule, which is thirty (30) days before the event. It provides you access to the entire routine list, divisions, and performers. The App automatically updates the performance times once the competition starts so that you can gauge when your favourite performances take the stage.
Yes, there is a feature to favourite routines so you can access a short list without having to scroll through. It is particularly handy for adjudications. Those are also pushed up to the app following the awards. You have access to them from the main list or your favourites list. We continue to develop and add features to the App. If you have any inputs or ideas, please feel free to share.
The performance venue, lobby and dressing rooms will be opened one (1) hour before the start of the competition and close a 1/2-hour after the last awards session unless otherwise advised. Competitors are required to check in with the Stage Manager thirty (30) minutes before their performance time. From time-to-time will get ahead of schedule. Parents and guests are asked to be at the theatre at least one (1) hour before the event.
Dressing rooms must be maintained at all times and be clean at the end of each session.
Each studio will receive a package which will include a program, a copy of the rules and regulations, dancer gifts along with other pertinent information about the event. These will be available at the venue during load-in, at the host hotel the night before the start date or can be picked up at the merchandise table.

In general, we will start no earlier than 8:00 AM and will end no later than 10:00 PM whenever possible and make every effort to limit longest dates to twelve (12) hours. There will be a General Schedule available on each event page; it will be updated routinely and finalised thirty (30) days before the competition.
Typically, there are two awards sessions per day. One in the afternoon for the younger dancers and one at the end of the evening for the teens and seniors.
On the final day, we also have the Flashover Finale which includes our Thunderbolts, Top Group Routines Battle, and Eye of the Storm Presentations.
