Tips & Advice
- Buy entry bracelets online by December 1, because they cost more at the door on festival day.
- Have dancers arrive 30 minutes before their performance, dressed and ready to dance, because the festival has no backstage.
- Arrive early if you want a seat near the front, because seats aren't assigned and there are very few in the front half of the main hall.
- Keep your bracelet on all day, because you need it to get into the performance space and to come and go between classes.
- If your dancer is in a FOUNDATIONS class, sit with them in their labeled class row until it's time to line up.
Special Events & Promotions
- Entry bracelets cost less when you buy them online through December 1 than at the door.
- Current DbD members get a discount on vendor booths.
