2026 Guest Academy Program Auditions

#Train, connect and grow with Queensland Ballet Academy

Queensland Ballet Academy’s Guest Academy Program is designed especially for talented ballet students based outside the Brisbane metropolitan area. Whether you live in regional Queensland, interstate, or overseas, this unique program gives you access to the exceptional training and holistic development offered by our full-time Academy programs.

Open to students in Years 7–9, the Guest Academy Program mirrors the core curriculum of our Lower School (Levels 6–4) and offers:

- Professional training with Queensland Ballet Academy’s world-class faculty
- A dedicated wellbeing session to support the physical and emotional development of young dancers
- The opportunity to observe full-time Academy classes and rehearsals, and, where possible, Queensland Ballet Company rehearsals

Students accepted into the program are required to attend one 5-day visit per term during the Queensland state school year, gaining invaluable experience in a professional dance environment.

Participants also receive exclusive discounted rates to Queensland Ballet Academy’s holiday programs and special events.

If you are an advanced ballet student residing in South East Queensland (outside Brisbane metro), regional Australia, or abroad, and are passionate about pursuing a professional career in dance — this is your chance to train, connect and grow with Queensland Ballet Academy.

We acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land on which we work and perform. Long before we performed on this land, it played host to the dance expression of our First Peoples. We pay our respects to their Elders — past, present and emerging — and acknowledge the valuable contribution they have made and continue to make to the cultural landscape of this country.
