Attractions and concert venues of two countries

A school music tour to Alsace can offer the attractions and concert venues of two countries, France and Germany. Spend time in Strasbourg, exploring the old town and the magnificent cathedral. Have your first taste of Tartes Flambées, a delicious local speciality “pizza”. Take a Strasbourg boat tour, spend a day at “Europa Park” theme park and take full advantage of being so close to the Black Forest with its wonderful parks and spa towns (gardens).

How to Prepare Your Students for Concerts on Tour - Part 2

FAQs

Find the answers to some of our most frequently asked questions.

We can send you mini-brochures to hand out at your rehearsals and a PowerPoint presentation for assemblies and parent’s meetings you may wish to hold. We also have a promotional poster to put up around your school, which you can download here. This will make it easier for you to get your students excited about your plans.

Once your tour is booked, it is safely in our hands. We will only ask for you assistance in understanding your concert requirements and you will be responsible for ensuring that the dates on our checklist are adhered to. Until your departure, you simply need to prepare your musicians musically and compile the tour repertoire.

We work hard to generate excellent attendance at each concert, as we understand that an appreciative audience makes all the difference. We produce eye-catching posters and handbills, which are displayed and distributed in the environs of your concerts. We also advertise your concerts in online and hard copy local What’s On Guides as well as newspapers, by way of press releases. In addition, we invite local dignitaries, music societies and music students to your concerts. Last but not least, we provide you with posters for your concerts, which will be displayed in your coach and placed on your Club Europe poster board at your venue by your tour manager before each concert.
