How can we help?

Our services

Stage Lark is a free resource for Australia’s student dance community—a single destination where parents, teachers, studios, and event managers can easily discover the country’s top competitions, scholarships, and auditions for school-aged children.

We bring the dance world together in a beautifully designed, mobile-first platform built for life on the move.

Over the coming months, we’ll be rolling out even more functionality — but for now, here’s what we offer:

  • Discover performance opportunities: From competitions and scholarships to workshops and auditions, Stage Lark is your one-stop resource for what’s on and what’s worth knowing.

  • Mobile-first design: Quick, clear access to essential information — anytime, anywhere — designed specifically for busy parents, teachers, and studio owners.

  • Business and event promotion: Studios, events, and dance-related businesses can list their offerings and reach the right audience with ease.

  • Web design expertise: As industry specialists, we also offer professional  web design services to help studios and dance organisations elevate their online presence.

Account management

It’s free to create an account on Stage Lark.

Our Business accounts are designed specifically for dance studios, organisations, and event organisers. With a Business account, you can list your organisation or event on the platform and promote it directly to a highly targeted audience of parents, teachers, and dancers.

We also send monthly newsletter updates to our subscriber list, ensuring your event or organisation stays front of mind within the dance community. Sign up here.

Opening an account on Stage Lark is quick, easy, and completely free. Just start here and fill out the online form, verify your email address, and you’ll be instantly taken to your personal account dashboard – ready to get started!

You can update your account details and password by signing in to My account and selecting My account details. Make your required changes – they’ll take effect immediately.

Sign in to My account, and click on My invoices to see a list of all issued receipts and payment records. You can download individual invoices directly from that page.

If you’d like to close your account, sign in to My account and go to My account details. Click on the Close my account tab and fill out the short closure form. Once we’ve received your form we’ll close your account and delete your details within 48 hours.

Listings

Once you’ve opened an account:

  1. Sign in to My account and navigate to Create a listing.
  2. To list your business or event in the Stage Lark directory, you first need to complete a Business Profile. If you only want to list your business (and not an event), you don’t need to do anything else. As soon as we’ve received your Business Profile, we’ll push it live on the platform.
  3. If you’re listing an event, choose which package you want, then fill out the online form. If you don’t have everything you need, you can save a draft and come back to it later.
  4. After submitting your form, it will go live on our platform within 24 hours. We’ll send you an email as soon as it’s live, so you can start sharing it with your network.

Quick tips to stand out on Stage Lark:

  • Use great images: Show off dancers, studios, and events with crisp, high-quality visuals. Avoid blurry or overly filtered photos.
  • Keep wording clear: Use warm, confident language that’s easy to understand.
  • Show key details early: Include competition dates, age groups, location, deadlines, and entry fees right up front.
  • Update regularly: Don’t let outdated info sit. Refresh listings with changes to rules, fees, or schedules.

Sign in to My account and navigate to My listings. All your live event listings and your Business Profile are stored on this page. Unpublished listings are saved under My archive.

Simply sign in to My account and head to My listings. This is where you can find all your listings currently live on the platform. Select the listing you’d like to update, click Edit, make your changes, then hit Next. Your updates will be applied instantly!

All event listings are automatically unpublished after their end date and stored in My archive under My listings. If you want to unpublish a listing before then, or if you want to remove your Business Profile from the platform, contact our support team, quoting the name of the listing and its Listing ID. We’ll get straight onto it!

Featured listings increase your event’s visibility even more, and mean you can benefit from extra features, like video, more imagery, and prime position in search categories: 

  • Prime position on our homepage: Event listings feature on our homepage and appear at the top of search categories on the search pages. 
  • Bring it to life with video: Showcase your offering by embedding a YouTube video.
  • Add more images: Add up to five images, which are displayed in a carousel. 
  • Newsletter feature: We’ll give your listing a prime spot in our monthly newsletter.

We accept payments through PayPal. PayPal offers various checkout options, and you don’t need a PayPal account to use their services.

PayPal offers security features like data encryption, fraud protection, and seller protection. It also meets the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard, which governs how payment data must be handled to prevent fraud and identity theft.

Your credit card or bank information is never stored on our platform – only PayPal handles it securely. Find out more about PayPal.

If you’ve spotted your business or event in our directory and would like to manage it yourself, we offer an easy way to take control.

  1. Sign up for an account if you haven’t already.
  2. Visit your listing in our directory and scroll to the bottom of the page and click the Claim this listing button.
  3. Fill out the short claim form to verify your connection to the business.

Once your account has been verified, we’ll transfer ownership of the listing to you. From there, you’ll be able to update your business or event details any time you like, keeping your information fresh, accurate, and fully in your hands.
