The Lower North Coast Dance Festival presents works of more than 1200 students from Kindergarten to Year 12 from schools across the Lower North Coast of NSW. Over 4 performances, audiences will be introduced to the range of different dance styles taught in public schools. Each performance displays the passion, skills and creativity of students and teachers as they explore the art of dance.

The aim of the Lower North Coast Dance Festival is to showcase high-quality, well-choreographed items that use the Dance Syllabus as the foundation for creating work with integrity and merit. The focus of the dance festival is on producing excellence in dance and promoting the high quality of students, teachers, performers and choreographers in the Lower North Coast.
