About The Dance School Awards
The Dance School Awards is the UK's official red-carpet awards ceremony dedicated to recognising and celebrating outstanding achievement across the dance industry.
From dance schools and studios to teachers, choreographers, performers and young dancers, the Awards honour the passion, dedication and talent that inspire the next generation of performers.
The inaugural Dance School Awards launched in London on 8 September 2024, establishing a new national platform to showcase excellence in dance education and performance. Following the incredible success of our second annual awards in September 2025, we are delighted to present the 3rd Annual Dance School Awards on Sunday 6 September 2026.
This year marks an exciting new chapter as The Dance School Awards moves to London's iconic West End, delivering an even bigger and more prestigious experience at the heart of the UK's entertainment industry. With a spectacular red carpet, world-class performances and the presentation of our national awards, the event promises to be the highlight of the dance calendar.
Our mission is simple: to celebrate achievement, inspire excellence and recognise the incredible contribution that dance schools, teachers and performers make to communities across the United Kingdom.
Whether you are stepping onto the stage, supporting from the audience or celebrating your school's achievements, we look forward to welcoming you to an unforgettable evening where the stars of dance truly shine.
