Dance Around The World is a community festival which celebrates traditional dance cultures from all parts of the world. In two explosively exciting and energetic days of dance, performers and teachers provide a non-stop programme of extraordinary variety from 10.00am to 11.00pm each day.
Visitors to the event will be able to watch and try for themselves traditional dance forms from all over the world. They will be able 
to choose from styles as varied as Flamenco, Indian, Hip-Hop, South East European, Tango and much, much more!
Dance Around The World is for everyone - whether you're young or old, an experienced dancer or a novice. If you've ever danced, wanted to dance or wondered why people dance then this festival is for you.
On both Saturday and Sunday evenings there will be a choice of dance or other events but the details have not yet been decided.
Below are the prices for the 2009 festival. We haven't set the prices yet for 2010 but this gives some idea of the costs. We keep the price as low as possible for an easy access event.
Full weekend ticket - £17 (2009 price)
Full day ticket either Saturday or Sunday (including the evening) - £10 (2009 price)
Evening only ticket (either Saturday or Sunday) - £7 (2009 price)
Concession prices are a £2 reduction, available only on the door. (2009 price)
Dance Around The World is an entirely voluntary event. All the performers, teachers and organisers donate their services free. We do not have a budget to bring groups from overseas, so in general all the groups come from the greater London area. It is our policy to set entrance prices at the most moderate rates possible.
