ABDC WILD CARD EVENT

Saturday 24TH July​

​​

Australia's Best Dance Crew Wild Card Event is back, giving your students the chance to train in two epic workshops and hit the stage with a live performance at the Hurstville Entertainment Centre!

​​The Wild Card Event Is Great For:

• NSW & ACT based dance schools with a Dance Team of 20+ students.

• Dance Schools who have thought about participating in the Australian Dance Festival in September but worry about whether the event may be too overwhelming for their students.

• Building confidence in students who may feel that the Australian Dance Festival is too big and intimidating for them. They will get a taste of all the great things about ADF - amazing instructors and the thrill of performing, in a much more intimate environment.

​

Held at the Hurstville Entertainment Centre in July, It’s their opportunity to shine on stage.

 

3 Schools will be chosen by our esteemed judges to fast-track straight to the Australia's Best Dance Crew Finals, happening on Sunday, September 20th, on the Main Stage at ADF 2027!

​

Australia's Best Dance Crew Wild Card Event, is your school’s chance to shine, make an impact, stand out, and earn your place among the best as you perform at the Australian Dance Festival’s biggest night of the year!

​
