Encore Tours is excited to share that we will be attending the North Carolina ACDA Fall Conference on October 10–11, 2025 at Queens University in Charlotte. We are proud to serve as the exclusive travel sponsor for this year’s event and to support the North Carolina choral community. On Friday evening, Encore will sponsor the All-Conference Dinner, a wonderful opportunity to gather and connect with colleagues across the state. Our Sales Director, Robin Teague, will be in attendance and looks forward to meeting with directors throughout the weekend. Robin is eager to hear about your ensembles, answer questions, and talk about how Encore can help bring your music to audiences around the world. If you are attending the conference, please stop by our booth. We would love to connect, share ideas, and explore the possibilities for your next performance tour. We look forward to seeing you in Charlotte.
