The largest event of its kind, One Dance UK’s U.Dance National Festival is a celebration of youth dance. Groups from U.Dance regional platforms around the country perform on professional stages, take part in workshops with leading dance professionals, and are offered inspiring dance careers information. 

The U.Dance National Festival 2025 is scheduled to be held on 25-27 July 2025 in partnership with Sadler’s Wells, at their fabulous new venue, Sadler’s Wells East in London’s Olympic Park.

Taking part in U.Dance Regional Platforms and U.Dance National Festival activity is free. Groups/individuals will be responsible for funding their own travel, food, accommodation and chaperones. 

One Dance UK and partners strive to make U.Dance Regional Platforms and the U.Dance National Festival welcoming and inclusive events. We encourage applications from young people with disabilities and underrepresented groups, and we welcome conversations with you and your group leaders around how we can support you and your group make the most out of your experience.
