2024 Dance Weekender Reel
Welcome to DANCEWEEKENDER 2025!
We’re so delighted that you will be joining us for DANCEWEEKENDER 2025 on Saturday, 13th September in Nipaluna/Hobart.
We acknowledge the Palawa people who have danced and shared art across Lutruwita for more than 60,000 years, and whose lands were never ceded. We pay tribute to their Elders past and present, and to the Elders of all First Nations communities.
ABOUT DANCEWEEKENDER
DANCEWEEKENDER is a vibrant celebration of community dance across Lutruwita/Tasmania, presented by Tasdance.
After its successful 2024 launch, the program this year brings together local dance groups for two afternoons of performing, teaching, and sharing. In Nipaluna/Hobart and Launceston, social dance groups will perform a short piece and then teach their style to the audience, inviting anyone to join in, whether for ten minutes or three hours.
Over 450 participants engaged in 2024, showcasing the diversity of dance and the strength of community connection.
At its heart, DANCEWEEKENDER is about collaboration, access, and making dance for everyone. It’s a welcoming space to learn, share, move, and connect.
