The 2026 Snowflake Lane Audition Form is NOW LIVE! The form can be found at <a href="http://bit.ly/SFL-26" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">bit.ly/SFL-26</a>.&nbsp;

It may feel early to be thinking about the winter holidays, but we are already recruiting performers for Snowflake Lane 2026! Every year, Snowflake Lane hires &ldquo;Jingle Belle&rdquo; dancers and a "Snow Belle" dance team to perform high-energy choreography, a group of &ldquo;Snow Flurries&rdquo; color guard performers who spin six-foot silk flags, a Drumline (think high-energy marching band), Masked Characters (Penguin, Mouse, etc.), Unmasked Characters (Princesses, Sugar Plum Fairies, etc.), Stilt Walkers (equipment and training provided), and Float Patrol (our lovely float drivers).&nbsp;

We are looking to hire upwards of 300 cast and crew members at a minimum of $40/show. Performances are outdoors at the Bellevue Collection every evening between Black Friday (11/27/2026) and Christmas Eve (12/24/2026). Call time is 5:30 PM, and the show runs from 7-7:30 PM. Limited evening and weekend (paid) rehearsals will occur in mid-November. The minimum age to audition is 14 years old. Costumes and props are provided, so there is no out-of-pocket production cost for the performer. Performers of all skill levels are encouraged to apply and will be trained by our staff.

<ul><li>DANCER AUDITIONS are Saturday, September 12th at 11am (10am check-in)&nbsp;</li><li>COLOR GUARD AUDITIONS are Saturday, September 19th at 11am (10am check-in)&nbsp;</li><li>CHARACTER, STILT WALKER, FLOAT PATROL, AND TECH AUDITIONS are Saturday, September 26th (appointments throughout the day)&nbsp;</li><li>DRUMLINE AUDITIONS are Sunday, September 27th at 11am (10am check-in)&nbsp;</li></ul>
