Field Trips
Blacksburg Ballet has been producing two field trip performances for many years. The field trip is a reduced performance length and cost intended for groups, including homeschool, preschool, college students, daycare facilities, adult care, senior facilities, or any other group that would benefit from this alternate option.
NEW in 2024! Thanks to our generous business sponsors, admission to our December 13 field trips is FREE! Email blacksburgballet@gmail.com to reserve your space.

World Showcase/Land of the Sweets
Over the years we have expanded to fully honor the cultural traditions of the countries represented in Act 2 of The Nutcracker. We were proud to collaborate with Hill and Veil Bellydance group from Virginia Tech and the Blacksburg Chinese School, beginning in 2022. If you are part of a cultural group or know someone who is, please send them our way! We are on a mission to share authentic performance styles from Spain, China, Russia, France, the Arabian Peninsula, and more.
