About The Event
Our 2019 theme "Movement of the People" counters negativity with walls and immigration by a perspective that we all can be equally regarded as immigrants. The ribbon will be cut at 1pm on Broadway and 21st Street, unleashing 10,000 dancers down through Union Square, University Place and across East 8th Street to our Grand Stand in Astor Plaza. Culminating at Avenue A, DanceFest runs from 3 to 7pm and caps the day off with 5 performance stages, dance teaser lessons and a dance party. Support this magnificent day of dance by joining the team, donating, sponsoring a float or dancing in the parade or presenting work at DanceFest!
The parade begins at 1pm at 21st & Broadway and features live bands, DJs and over 80 unique styles of dance, everything from ballet to break dance!
DanceFest 2019 in Tompkins Square Park, the destination of the parade at Avenue A and Saint Marks Place, comes alive with choreographed performances, dance lessons, aerial and social dance –on five stages, all free to the public.
As the parade ends at Avenue A and Saint Marks, DanceFest begins from 3-7pm on five stages and in site-specific location all around Tompkins Square Park!
