Capital of Dance

Blackpool is the UK's capital of dance and this new pilot event will grow into an annual festival celebrating the resort's unrivalled heritage in dance.

There are live shows, free and ticketed workshops and great opportunities for dancers and teachers of movement across the country and beyond.

Sadlers Wells are auditioning for their National Youth Dance Company and hosting free workshops.  Strictly's Karen Hauer will also be teaching Salsa for a public ticketed class and she will be hosting a free workshop for trained dancers in choreography and body movement.
