This festival brings together traditional dance cultures from all over the world in an exciting weekend of performances and workshops. Visitors to the event will be able to watch and try for themselves dance styles from all over the world. The non-stop programme of performances and workshops runs from 10.00 am to 11:00pm on both days. Musicians can learn traditional dance tunes and try them out on dancers at the relaxed and entertaining music workshops. On Saturday evening we stage a fizzing Latin-American night and a Cajun dance. on Sunday evening visitors can enjoy an eclectic international barn dance or participate in a thought-provoking conference. Everyone who performs and teaches at the festival is passionate about traditional dance.
