North Pocono High School Marching Band & Units Walt Disney World 2027

Apr 7 - 10, 2027

This performance trip is a celebration of the hard work, discipline, and dedication students will put forth throughout the year. In recognition of their commitment, they will travel to Walt Disney World for a once-in-a-lifetime marching and performance experience, with flights, transfers, park tickets, accommodations, and food vouchers included in their group package.

While students travel together as a group and enjoy a fully planned Disney experience, parents and families are invited to be part of the magic as well. Families can book resort packages through me with personalized planning services designed to align your stay with the student itinerary. This makes it easy to be there for the highlight of the trip—watching your student perform at Walt Disney World—while also enjoying time in the parks together. To begin the booking process, simply complete the self-service travel form to view available resort package options for your family.
