How to Earn Points
It’s easy! Here’s how your family can help your studio.
1. Shop at Allegra & Co.
Visit us between October 19 and November 21st, 2026.
2. Tell us your studio.
Our staff will ask, so let us know which Anchorage-area dance studio your dancer attends when you check out.
3. Earn a point!
Your studio receives one point per family, per day when your family makes a qualifying shopping visit.
Multiple transactions on the same day count as one point per family.
That’s it! No registration, entry fee, or sign-up is needed.
Every Studio Is Invited
The Allegra Studio Cup is about celebrating our dance community, not putting studios against each other.
All Anchorage-area dance studios are automatically included. Your studio can earn points whether or not they are a partnered studio.
Every studio has a place on the leaderboard once it earns qualifying points. We’ll share updated standings every couple of days so families can follow along.
Standings are updated weekly. Final totals will be verified after November 21st.
Every point counts. Keep shopping, keep cheering, and keep showing your studio some love!
When Is the Winner Announced?
The competition closes on November 21st, 2026. We’ll verify the final totals and contact the highest-ranked studio director privately to confirm acceptance before announcing the winner.
If a studio declines the award or does not respond within 48 hours of being contacted, the award will be offered to the next-highest-ranked studio. This process continues until a studio accepts.
The public announcement may be delayed if additional time is needed to confirm acceptance.
What Happens if There’s a Tie?
The studio with the most unique qualifying family shopping visits during the competition ranks higher. If the tie remains, Allegra & Co. will use a documented random drawing to determine the order.
