Entries continue to flow in, with not just European couples but also participants travelling from as far as Australia, Japan, and Taiwan. They will compete fiercely across categories including standard, Latin, ten-dance, show dance, and American smooth, all vying for five world championship titles and one European championship crown, the organisers told MTI.
The extravaganza kicks off on 21st November, a day dedicated to dance enthusiasts with world champion instructors offering four 45-minute masterclasses open to everyone.
Professional dancers, families faces
Saturday is reserved for professional dancers battling it out, culminating in the much-anticipated finale of the ten-dance category’s world championship, decided before a public gala dinner audience. Spectators will also enjoy dazzling performances from the morning’s world champion couples.
On Sunday, fans can look forward to familiar faces from Dancing with the Stars taking to the floor, partnered with their own students in the ProAm category, where amateurs dance alongside their teachers. The day also features another world championship exclusively for registered amateur competitors competing for the amateur ten-dance world title.
