12 years of celebrating our dance Community.

Lamondance & Friends Gala, an extraordinary event that unites the dance community in a night to celebrate the art of Dance, promises an unforgettable evening of pure passion, love, and creativity. Set in the vibrant city of Vancouver, renowned for its cultural diversity and dance scene, this gala showcases the multifaceted nature of the dance community, bringing together artists of different styles, backgrounds, and experiences.

The Lamondance & Friends Gala goes beyond simply presenting a show; it is a testament to the power of unity and collaboration within the dance world. With no competition or judgement, this gala aims to foster a sense of togetherness, nurturing connections and showcasing the incredible talent that Vancouver has to offer.

The event serves a dual purpose, supporting Lamondance's scholarship and bursary program while also contributing to the production of other shows. Lamondance, as an organization, firmly believes in the power of sharing and the notion that diversity is a strength. It is through the collective efforts and unique contributions of each individual that the dance community truly shines.

Attendees can expect an awe-inspiring display of various dance styles, from classical ballet to contemporary, jazz to hip hop, and everything in between. Each performance is a testament to the dedication, skill, and artistic expression of the dancers, highlighting the breadth and depth of talent present within the Vancouver dance community.

The Lamondance & Friends Gala not only brings together dancers but also establishes connections with the audience, inviting them to witness the transformative power of dance firsthand. It is a night of celebration, appreciation, and profound emotions that leave a lasting impact on all who attend.
