• City-specific schedules will be released at least 7 days prior to each event.
• A standard Press Play weekend features Solo and Duo/Trio Competition on Friday and Group Competition on Saturday.
• Friday usually kicks off at 8:00 AM, starting with PeeWee solos and moving through Mini, Junior, Teen, Senior, and Open solos. Duo/Trios follow once solos are complete.

• If a Solo or Duo/Trio is scheduled before 3:30 PM on Friday and the dancer chooses not to perform, and notifies the office within 72 hours of the schedule being posted, Press Play will provide a full refund for that routine.

• In some cities, Group Competition may begin after 3:30 PM on Friday. Studios will be notified at least two weeks in advance if this adjustment is necessary.

• To support dancer wellness, routines in the PeeWee, Mini, and Junior divisions will not be scheduled after 9:00 PM, and routines in the Teen, Senior, and Open divisions will not be scheduled after 11:00 PM.

• To ensure an efficient and timely event, Press Play reserves the right to adjust the schedule as needed. With limited exceptions (e.g., medical emergencies, active nosebleeds, vomiting, or legitimate costume change issues), routines will be expected to perform in program order. Studios should be prepared for routines to perform up to one hour ahead of the posted time. Delaying or improperly holding a routine may result in disqualification or a deduction in score.

Due to religious observances, our Utah event is scheduled for Thursday through Saturday. There is a small chance solos may begin as early as Wednesday afternoon. Typical schedule is:
