Join us for an event that will showcase an amazing
array of dance talent. Telford Dance Festival will present a
spectacular celebration of dance over three nights in February.
Over a hundred different dancers each night will perform in a huge
variety of styles from ballet to street, tap, jazz and contemporary.
Dancers from local primary and secondary schools will be joined by youth dance groups,
dance schools and stage schools. Talented young dancers from local colleges and universities
