Q. IS GALA MANDATORY FOR ALL DANCERS?
A. Yes All Competitors are required to attend the GALA.
Q. IS THE GALA MANDATORY FOR PARENTS AT NATIONALS? Either one?
A. ALL dancers under the age of 14 require supervision so there must be a responsible ADULT over the age of 25 who is responsible for your child if you are unable to attend. We do recommend all parents do attend as this is the AWARDS BANQUET. So all OVERALLS are not done at the competition they are done during this time. If your child wins you wont be a part of that moment without a Gala Ticket. In addition if you do not purchase your ticket by the Gala Ticket deadline seating charts are going to be assigned and you will not be sitting with your dancer(s) or studios. All tickets purchased (if avail and not sold out) after the deadline will be seated at random locations with all the tickets purchased late (it will still be assigned just not with your dancers/studios necessarily). WE CANNOT TAKE SPECIAL REQUESTS we will put those who purchased on time together with their siblings/team mates and studios and that is the ONLY GUARANTEE we can make for the GALA.
Q. DOES A BABY NEED A GALA TICKET?
A. NO. they do not need a ticket (under 3 years old) 3+over will require a ticket.
Q. HOW DOES THE CANADA/USA NATIONAL SCHEDULE LOOK?
