Performances
We recognise the exceptional talent present in the UAE. The performances showcased throughout the country are truly phenomenal. We aim to include performances from agencies, artists, and creatives to not only highlight their talent but also inspire the younger generation. This platform will facilitate networking opportunities with studios, businesses, and fellow artists, creating a hub for the performing arts community to celebrate, inspire, and learn from each other. Our goal is to bridge gaps and foster connections within the performing arts industry, enabling mutual support and collaboration.
Young dancers often feel disconnected and uncertain about the realities of the industry. To address this, we offer masterclasses and mock auditions to provide them with valuable industry expertise and advice. The training standards and the quality of students in the UAE are exceptionally high, thanks to the calibre of teachers and studios available. Many students already possess a pre-professional level of skill. However, they may lack a reference point to gauge their abilities and determine the practicality of pursuing a career in the performing arts. While we acknowledge the challenges of the arts industry, we believe it to be a rewarding path. By featuring performances throughout the day, we aim to not only inspire students but also encourage them to consider the industry as a viable career option. We hope to empower dancers to continue their training and initiate meaningful discussions with local and international professionals and industry experts.
We would love to encourage performances throughout the weekend in various locations around the building. There are only a few slots available on our main stage due to the competition. However if you are interested then please do get in touch and we will work together to ensure you are in the best place for your performance.

Sponsors
As the UAE is a transient place with people coming and going all the time due to work contracts, students can often end up relocating to other countries in the Middle East, the UK, Europe, or the USA. Students, professionals, teachers, and studio owners frequently travel during the summer months, and we would like to provide them with opportunities for intensives and scholarship opportunities around the world. These may include summer schools, summer intensives, teacher training, and development courses. We are keen to hear from and collaborate with companies that share our vision and ethos.
We are also seeking vendors to sell creative or artistic items on the day of the event. There will be stalls located throughout the venue, as masterclasses and performances will take place in various locations throughout the day. Our competition will run across the two days and feature multiple different categories. The event will attract students, studio owners, audience members, performers, parents, and schools, all with an interest in the arts. We want to ensure there is a wide range of activities and offerings at the event, and we believe vendors will contribute to this goal. Furthermore, we aim to support local businesses and creative individuals by providing them with an opportunity and platform to showcase their products. If you would like to participate as a vendor, please get in touch as there are limited slots available each day, and discounts are available for those participating on both days.
We understand that not everyone may be available on the event days or may wish to support the arts in other ways, so we offer sponsorship opportunities.
We have established a sponsorship scheme to support our young performers
You can sponsor an award, and each award sponsorship costs 250 AED.
If you choose to sponsor 1st place across an entire category (e.g., Musical Theatre 1st Solo’s for Mini, Junior, Inter, and Senior categories), you will receive an award named after your company, such as “The ‘Company Name’ Award for Most Potential,” at a cost of 1,000 AED.
