Prague

The Dance World Cup 2024 World Finals, held from June 27th to July 6th at the Prague Congress Centre, was our biggest and most remarkable event yet, showcasing the talents of 9,500 dancers from 54 countries, with 20,000 supporters in attendance.

Running daily from 08:30 am to 10:00 pm across three stages simultaneously, the competition showcased a diverse range of dance genres, judged by 37 world-renowned experts. It also featured over 120 masterclasses conducted by these esteemed teachers and other industry legends. The event was proudly supported by 160 volunteers, helpers, and technical staff.

The DWC 2024 Finals kicked off with the customarily olympic-style opening ceremony on June 28th, where 20,000 worldwide participants and their supporters paraded through Prague's Old Town to Wenceslas Square.

Spectacular special performances during the event included shows by the Japanese professional company Kotan and Awaji World Ballet, as well as the Spanish national school dance show Enraizao.

Gala events on July 2nd and July 6th highlighted winning performances, with special appearances by Czech Prima ballerina Daria Klimentova and American celebrity Abby Lee Miller from the hit tv series "Dance Moms."

Notably, the newly formed DWC Junior dance company left audiences speechless with their debut of two spectacular pieces, choreographed by the renowned Richard Wherlock and supported by professional teachers from Basle Ballet Switzerland and Mr. Niall McMahon from Ireland.

The Dance World Cup 2024 did not disappoint and lived up to its reputation as the largest dance competition for children and young adults in the world, and once again succeeded in fostering international friendships and celebrating the universal language of dance, all set against the stunning backdrop of Prague. True to its motto, it truly was "Friendship through the language of dance!"
