Worlds is
coming
to Disney World in Orlando, Florida next January!
This 20th annual
event features the top couples, pro-am, teams & line dance competitors from all over the world competing for over $75,000
in prizes. The UCWDC (United Country Western Dance Council)
produces this annual world class event which is the largest and
the most fun of its kind! It’s more than a competition...
it’s a festival! In addition to watching the competitors, you
can attend workshops, shop at a wide variety vendor booths, make some new friends, and dance, dance, dance!
The Country Dance World Championships is a week long dance
vacation.
Dance, Dance, Dance
The World Championships event is filled to the brim with dance
activities for everyone whether you're interested in line dancing,
couples dancing, country, swing, hustle, social dancing, watching the
competitions or pure dance entertainment. So for days that
begin early and last well into the night, dancers and spectators
alike will have the opportunity to witness a tremendous variety
of competitions in numerous dances categories for all ages and
ability levels - all where World Championship Titles are at
stake. In addition to the competitions, there will also be
many social dance segments when dancers can gather, socialize,
and compare notes on the many exciting events taking place
throughout the five full days.
Spectators, Welcome to the party!
There is a lot to watch as the top competitors in the world
battle it out for the title “World Champion” Also for spectators will
be great open dancing, shopping the many vendors, visit the sites and
sounds of Nashville. There is
a lot of fun to be had.
Line Dancers…
Because so many line dancers attend the Worlds event from all
over the globe, we've made sure there will always be something
for you to do. It starts with the Line Dance Blast -
Dec 30 - Jan 1. A full weekend of all line dance workshops
and open dancing. Then Worlds continues for another week
with a dedicated large dance
floor and several workshop rooms to provide open line dancing day and night and occasional line dance
lessons throughout. Plus, there's the wide
variety of Line Dance Competitions that begin with any required
preliminary rounds of competition and culminate in the highest
divisions for Super Stars.
Couples and Pro Am…
As couples competition continues to raise the bar each year, and
Pro Am continues to grow in size, these segments of the Worlds
event will again bring a new level of excitement and
entertainment for all to enjoy.
Swing and Hustle…
The UCWDC has responded to the popularity of both Swing and
Hustle by including these dances in a separate Pro Am
competition. This contest will feature relaxed rules with
contemporary swing and hustle music (no hats or boots for this
one). Just bring your favorite outfit and your favorite pro.
While routines are allowed, the judges will be watching for
superior lead and follow dancing skills. We also will offer a
WSDC Jack & Jill swing competition and points count toward the WSDC. For nighttime social dancing and entertainment, the Swing
Ballroom will feature primarily swing and hustle social dancing
throughout the event.
Dance Workshops…
Over 100 hours of instruction will be offered covering all
levels of couples, line, swing and hustle dancing from the beginner
through the professional level. Many of these workshops,
generally the beginning level ones, will be included with the purchase
of an event pass. Intermediate to advanced level classes, and
specialized technique classes, will also be available for an additional
charge. For the best value, purchase the 6-day pass with workshops
included (as many as you care to take!).
Shop the Many Vendors!
If you're shopping for a new pair of dance boots, some accessory
jewelry, that one-of-a-kind tie or vest or skirt or blouse…well,
you get the idea! Worlds will have a shopping area to include
all sorts of products and services that are of interest to
dancers.
