The Dubuque Community School District’s Spring Music Festivals are right around the corner.

This year, with a continually growing number of students involved in music programming, we have reached the level of having so many participants that we have decided to divide each of our district choral and instrumental music festivals into two nights each.

We hope that this new format will help better accommodate the extremely large number of family and community members who attend the festivals – all with ample seating, increased parking and improved safety for students and families.

Here is the schedule of events:
