Largest Bollywood Dance – 12:10pm –1.10pm

Most Couples Dancing in the Square - 2:10pm–3.10pm
Watch some inspiring partner dance performances including The Wheelchair Dancesport Association UK and the sensational Jiving Lindy Hoppers, then join a fun Jive class with the company who will teach you a short sequence with your partner.
