We, the United Kingdom Equality Dance Council, would like you to join us in celebrating our equality dance community in the UK at the UKEDC Ball and Awards 2024!
We know our community loves dancing at the Rivoli Ballroom, so why change a venue that you love? This glamorous original 1950's style Ballroom was the London home of equality social dancing for over two decades. After bringing the community back here last year, we all enjoyed it so much, and we are excited to be back at this iconic venue for an evening of dancing! And this year, we have two great DJs to take you through the evening.
Come to the UKEDC Ball and the Equality Fun Competition and bag a bargain!
This year we are absolutely delighted to be partnering with the 20th Anniversary Special of the Equality Fun Competition which will take place at the Rivoli Ballroom during the day on 5 October 2024. So in additon to selling tickets for the ball, we are also offering combination tickets for the competition and the ball.* This means you can enjoy a whole afternoon and evening of fabulous dancing - while saving some money compared to buying tickets separately. The Equality Fun Competition is an informal and fun practice competition for starter, beginner and improver same-sex and equality dancers – everyone is welcome. Please head to the Equality Fun Competition page to find out more about the programme or if you only want competition tickets.
Great value ticket options
We are offering a number of great value ticket options - and even better: ticket prices are lower than last year!
Our early bird offer is back until 31 August 2024, offering lower prices for those who book early.
This year, we are including the Evenbrite booking fee in the ticket price, making tickets cheaper overall for you!
Members' ticket prices are now available to UKEDC members and ESSDA members, so we hope to welcome some more of our dancing friends from across Europe this year! If you are not yet a UKEDC member, why not join? It's only £15 to join and you can get some great discounts at other dance competitions and with dance shoe and dance wear suppliers.
We are offering UKEDC Ball only tickets as well as combination tickets for the Equality Fun Competition and the UKEDC Ball together. If you buy a combination ticket, you pay less when compared to buying separate tickets.
