Jane Werry, Head of Music, Hayes School, Kent

Darren Roberts, Mounts Bay Academy, Cornwall

Italy's largest and arguably most beautiful lake

Lake Garda is encased by dramatic mountains to the north, where the waters run deepest and opening up to lower, rolling land to the south. The popular Gardaland Theme Park is one of the most popular in Europe and mountain top villages and towns play host to fantastic concerts that are held in the late evening. Lake Garda itself can be experienced not only through its beauty but also by river cruise and even swimming at one of the beaches. With Verona and Venice within easy reach not to mention the Dolomites this region is a must for anyone hoping to sample true Italian culture with atmospheric concerts and excellent food among the many the highlights.

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.

We have drawn up a comprehensive step-by-step Guide to planning a school music tour for first time tourers.
