National Schools Dance Competition
The Great Big Dance Off is a popular national dance competition open to schools all across England & Wales. This is the ONLY national dance competition aimed SOLELY at schools. Our vision is to create an exciting competition bringing together children of all ages and abilities where the emphasis is on having a good time.
Each school can enter as many teams as it likes. Whatever your preferred style of dancing, whatever your level of experience, we want you to be involved. A bit of imagination, dedication and teamwork is all that is required.

New for TGBDO 2020Whilst we may have to wait a while longer to get together again, we’d love to kick off the GBDO year with a virtual competition and hope that by the Spring we can offer you some live heats and a Grand Final.
Each school can enter up to 5 solo dancers. Initial entry must be completed by Monday 19th October so don't delay! TGBDO 2019The Great Big Dance Off 2019 was bigger than ever with teams from all over the country but still focused on fun, healthy competition. We had a wonderful time organising the competition, meeting all the dancers and watching the performances.

"Wow! What a great competition. Our girls had a wonderful day and were so proud of themselves, and getting third place was the icing on the cake for them. We cannot wait to come back next year and are already making plans."

"I just wanted to thank you on behalf of myself and my students for a fantastic opportunity. It was a wonderful experience for them not only to perform, but to be able to watch other schools perform to an incredible standard. They have come back with so many ideas and things they want to try out."

Our event is about performanceWe want to provide a professional stage where children can enjoy their performance in front of family and friends. We hope they’ll feel like stars as they dance at some of the country’s most special venues.
