Welcome to our Rising Star Youth Vocal and Dance Competition sponsored by Music Festivals & Tours. We are in our thirty-first year as North America's leader in offering the finest, most affordable competitions, festivals and tours. Our popular Rising Star Program began in Nashville in conjunction with Nashville's largest event, the annual "CMA Country Music Festival," followed by a competition on Broadway in New York City. Now, we bring you and your family or dance team an opportunity to sail the high seas to Bermuda on Royal Caribbean's Grandeur of the Seas while competing in our latest Rising Star Event! We look forward to welcoming you, your family or your dance team to our Rising Star Youth Vocal and Dance Competition on this five-night cruise to Bermuda leaving from the Port of Baltimore on July 22, 2017. We assure you this will be an experience your daughter or son will remember for a lifetime.
