Join Us at the 2025 OCDA Summer Conference

Encore Tours is excited to participate in the 2025 Ohio Choral Directors Association (OCDA) Summer Conference, taking place June 23–25 at Capital University in Bexley, OH.

This annual event is Ohio’s premier professional development gathering for choral directors of all kinds: educators, community leaders, church musicians, and beyond. It offers inspiring sessions, dynamic performances, and meaningful opportunities to connect with fellow conductors and collaborators.

How Encore Helps Choirs Thrive

At Encore, we understand the unique needs of choral ensembles. Whether you’re leading a high school choir, a community chorus, or a church group, our team brings decades of experience in organizing transformative performance tours. We handle every detail from venue booking and audience promotion to accommodations and travel logistics, so you can focus on what matters most: the music.

Our tours are designed to elevate your ensemble’s experience with:

• Custom itineraries tailored to your group’s goals
• Performances in iconic venues with guaranteed audiences
• Full-service support from planning through return
• Access to professional development opportunities like our annual Prelude weekend

Join Us for a Special Reception

Kick off the conference with Encore on Monday, June 23 at 5:00 PM. We’re hosting a reception with complimentary food, drinks, and prizes. The event will take place at the Student Union in the Schneider Room, and it’s the perfect opportunity to meet fellow directors and explore what’s possible for your next tour.

Visit Us at the Exhibit Hall
