Dancefest began life in 1990 as a festival to celebrate and raise the profile of dance. It has now grown into the main community dance development organisation for Herefordshire and Worcestershire.

Over three decades, we have provided opportunities for over 200,000 people to take part in contemporary dance, through our programme of classes, workshops, school and community projects.

We have created outdoor performances on our high streets, at stately homes and in public open spaces (both urban and rural) reaching audiences of over 150,000 people. We have created communities and nurtured young talent.

We use the power and joy of dance to enhance people’s lives; in schools, communities, on the streets and in rural spaces.

We encourage curiosity - about contemporary dance, who dances, where dance happens.
