We are looking forward to Saturday the 25th of April 2026, to great dancers, to the fantastic audience, to the joyful faces on all sides. For some it is the preparation for the German Championships, for others a regional tournament event and, for those who know, a particularly charming and loving tournament and THE fixed date in the tournament calendar. We are excited to see if this year dancers from all over Europe will find their way to Berlin, and we expect a colourful starting field, which will inspire the audience by its diversity and dance quality.
To celebrate the first anniversary of Big Brum Boogie and Chloë and Em’s wedding, join us for an afternoon of queer-inclusive ballroom and latin dancing where anyone is welcome to dance with whoever they choose (just ask for their permission first…)! No need to bring a partner, everyone is welcome.
