We’re excited to share that Encore Tours will be exhibiting at the 2026 Midwestern ACDA Region Conference of the American Choral Directors Association in Milwaukee, February 25–28. If you’re attending ACDA Midwest this year, we hope you’ll stop by Booth 202 to connect with us in person. ACDA Midwest consistently brings together thoughtful, forward-looking choral directors from across the region. For many ensembles, this conference marks the beginning of conversations about future international performance tours. We’re already speaking with directors who are planning choir tours for 2027 and 2028, and we expect those conversations to continue in Milwaukee. Julian Edwards will be joining us at Booth 202 throughout the conference. As a dedicated Encore program consultant, Julian works closely with directors to answer planning questions, explore destination ideas, and design travel experiences that reflect each ensemble’s goals. We value long-term relationships, and ACDA is always a meaningful opportunity to reconnect and begin new conversations. We believe thoughtful travel planning starts with a conversation. When we begin discussions well in advance, we’re able to secure preferred venues, align travel with your academic calendar, and create a recruitment timeline that supports strong participation. Whether you’re exploring an international performance tour or a customized ensemble travel experience, ACDA Midwest offers a convenient setting to ask questions and consider what’s possible. If you’d like to reserve time to meet with Julian during the conference, we encourage you to reach out ahead of time, as schedules tend to fill quickly. Otherwise, stop by Booth 202 in Milwaukee. We look forward to seeing you at ACDA Midwest 2026.
