A MESSAGE FROM YOUTH AMERICA GRAND PRIX
DEAR FRIENDS
We are thrilled to announce the beginning of the 17th season of Youth
America Grand Prix and look forward to seeing you all at the regional
semi-finals.
Many of you have asked us for information about the U.S. regional events
– and, to help you plan your participation, we have prepared a guide with
information about each location. It includes answers to the questions that
our participants most frequently consider in deciding which location to
attend – such as the size and type of competition and workshop facilities,
their proximity to the airport, availability of local restaurants and hotel
accommodations, and the general level of competitiveness. Please note
that the number of seats in the theater can be used as a good indication
of the size of the event: the smaller the size of the auditorium, the more
limited the capacity of the event; so if you are planning to participate in
a specific regional and see that the size of the auditorium is small, we
recommend registering early to ensure your participation.
We hope you will find it useful in making your plans for the season.

TAMPA, FL (JANUARY 8-10, 2016)
EVENTS
The David A. Straz Jr. Center for the Performing Arts is a
state-of-the-art facility located in the heart of the vibrant and
touristy downtown area of Tampa. Many of our participants find
this venue to be very convenient, as all competition and workshop
events take place under one roof. It is also located within walking
distance from two hotels and several restaurants, eliminating the
need to rent a car or arrange for transportation between the hotels
and competition venues once you arrive at the hotel.
Because there are only two hotels within walking distance of the
theater, we recommend reserving your hotel accommodations as
early in advance as possible.

SALT LAKE CITY, UT (FEBRUARY 25-27, 2016)
This a very special regional semi-final, as it is the only location
where in addition to the competition, YAGP will also present a Gala
performance – so participants will not only have the opportunity
to compete and take master classes, they will also have a chance
to perform on a professional stage for general audience after the
competition is over.
The competition and the Gala will take place at the beautiful,
historic Capitol Theatre – the home of Ballet West. The Master
Classes will be conducted at the spacious, modern, brand new
Ballet West studios. This is one of our most convenient semi-finals,
as all competition venues are located within walking distance.
As an added attraction, downtown Salt Lake City is located within
a very short distance from ski and snowboard resorts, which are
less than an hour’s drive away.
