Set up right in the hub of Festival Park (Civic Square Park) is an irresistible gathering spot for this FREE entertainment and unique audience participation event.
Civic Square holds a special place in Darwin’s dance history. For many years it hosted public dances, debutante balls and waltzes. Over 16 nights throughout the Festival come and discover dances from the Congo to Burma to Kalymnos and back to the latest new dance trends and golden oldie favourites.
