A Universally Amazing Experience At OrlandoFest

Hours of practice. Countless rehearsals. Early mornings and late nights. Participation in the performing arts demands dedication. It requires a commitment to learning fundamental and technical skills while inspiring a love of music, dance, and showmanship. Anyone who has ever been a part of marching band, orchestra, choir, dance, or other artistic programs knows the work is tough but the reward is a nurturing of the soul. Most will jump at the chance to highlight or hone these hard-earned skills through competition, workshops, or performance venues.

What is OrlandoFest?

Fortunately, there’s an exceptional Music Festival and Performance Experience that meets the mark on all counts! OrlandoFest is a premier, education-based music experience taking place Fridays and Saturdays from March through early June in Orlando, FL*.
