 Step 1
SUBMIT ALL OF YOUR APPLICATION MATERIALS AT LEAST TWO MONTHS (8 WEEKS) PRIOR TO YOUR REQUESTED PERFORMANCE DATE . Applications can be accepted up to one year in advance of your requested performance date.
Step 2
COMPLETE A PERFORMANCE APPLICATION FOR EACH GROUP AUDITIONING. NO APPLICATION FEE FOR THE INITIAL GROUP. If you have more than one group in one of the following disciplines (band, orchestra, vocal, or dance) applying for separate performances, copy and submit a separate Performance Application (we can supply you with this), along with a $50 application fee for each additional group's performance. This fee is not necessary if you have multiple groups from different disciplines (such as a band and an orchestra). The additional group(s) will not be scheduled until 4 weeks prior to the performance date of your first group. If your additional group(s) is not selected, then the $50 application fee is refundable. Make checks payable to Walt Disney Parks and Resorts.
Step 3 SUBMIT A NON-RETURNABLE, DVD OR VHS-FORMAT VIDEOTAPE OF A PERFORMANCE THAT IS LESS THAN ONE YEAR OLD. This DVD or videotape (no excerpts, please) should be representative of the actual number of performers that would be performing, and feature selections typical of the group's proposed performance at the Walt Disney World® Resort. Please place your video camera close enough so that specific movements of the group can be easily and clearly seen, but far enough away to capture the whole group at one time. Please avoid close-ups and individual shots. Promotional videos and adjudication videos are not acceptable. (Please label the videotape or DVD with the group's name, the director's name, and the director's telephone number.)
