FREE LIVE MUSIC: School of Rock AllStars Tour 2025

Saturday July 26th

COME SEE THE NEXT GENERATION OF GREAT MUSICIANS

Watch the AllStars live on July 26, 2025 right here at NOLA Brewing. Doors open at 6:00 PM, and the show starts at 6:30 PM. This is a FREE SHOW.

The School of Rock AllStars Tour takes the very best students from around the world and sends them on a country-wide summer tour across the United States. Less than 1% of School of Rock students are selected each year to represent School of Rock as an AllStar. Students in both the Performance Program and House Band are eligible to audition for this prestigious program. The intensive audition process starts off with video submissions, followed by live auditions. Once selected, students will have an authentic touring experience, including traveling on a tour bus, doing tour publicity, and starring in nightly performances at famous venues and festivals during a ten-day tour.

Becoming an AllStar is the highest level of achievement for a School of Rock student. These students often go on to have accomplished careers in the music industry. Former AllStars have gone on to become touring artists, star in Broadway musicals, get signed to record deals, become finalists on talent competitions like The Voice and American Idol, or have other notable roles in the music industry.
