Wigan Borough Dance Festival 2024

We are excited to announce the return of the Wigan Borough Dance Festival for 2024.

The Wigan Borough Dance Festival has become one of the biggest events in Wigan's Cultural Calendar and we can't wait for it to return to The Edge Conference Centre in 2024.  As well as the two schools performance platforms and community showcase, we're also adding to the programme with a new WigLe Dance performance night and the first Greater Manchester Schools Dance Festival supported by the School Games Coordinators. 

We're also delighted to announce our headline sponsor for the event will be Edge Hill University. We'll be working closely with them on exciting additional content including performances and workshops led by their students.   

The festival has also been supported by Wigan Council, Curious Minds and the Wigan School Games co-ordinators.
