ABOUT THE EVENT
International dance competitions created for dancers and for dancers associated with the Polish Dance Federation, national partner organizations, the IDO movement, as well as non-associated dancers.
The first edition of the International Christmas Dance Festival (oldest name: International Polish Championships) was played in Raszyn in December 2020 as part of the 20th edition of World Dance week. The disappointments arose from the need of the moment and successfully filled the place of the World Championships canceled due to the pandemic. International Christmas Dance Festival refers to the tradition of World Dance week – since 2001.
Placing the competition in the Sports Center in Raszyn is not a coincidence. This decision was made not only by the beautiful, spacious parking lot and proximity to Warsaw, the positive decision to start permanent cooperation with the Sports Center in Raszyn is a response to the positive and professional approach of the Director of the Sports Center, Ms. Katarzyna Klimaszewska - a woman dedicated to sport and culture, for the impossible does not exist.
We anticipate the participation of dancers from all over Poland and our international dance friends who have been with us for years.
Only in Raszyn special Christmas categories: Christmas Performing Art Improvisation and Christmas Group & Formations - you will not find such dance categories anywhere in the world, so prepare Christmas music and costumes that will bring us closer to the magic of Christmas on the dance floor.
We also heard that Santa will come to us ... and you were polite ...?
We invite you to the next edition, which will be held on 15 - 18.12.2022.
