The exciting addition of Junior High All-State in Peoria this January brings about some schedule changes for our All-State student programs at all levels.

Please take some time to review the ensemble schedules in the Google Folder linked below:

2026 All-State Student Program Schedules

We know that until All-State results are released in early December, you won’t be able to make concrete plans for your time in Peoria, but we need to bring your attention to these changes sooner rather than later!

Here are a few schedule changes we especially want to highlight:

Thursday

All Senior ensembles rehearse beginning at 9:00am.
All Junior ensembles rehearse starting at 9:30am.

Friday

Senior Arena Rehearsals on Friday will start in the early afternoon.
Junior Arena Rehearsals on Friday will start in late afternoon with their concert at 6:00pm.

Saturday

Elementary 6th Grade Chorus will begin their day in the Peoria Civic Center Theater at 9:00am (4th & 5th Grade chorus will also begin at 9:00am, but in the Marriott Pere Marquette ballroom as in past years).
Senior All-state and Honors ensembles will begin rehearsal at either 9:00am or 10:45am.
Senior All-State and Honors concert times will remain the same.

General Notes

There are no changes to Instrumental Jazz, Vocal Jazz, FMES, or Composition schedules.
There will be a master at-a-glance schedule available on the ILMEA website when All-State results are released.

Thank you for your attention to these important updates!
