Dear Dancing Friends

We are delighted to announce that bookings have opened for the 68th White Rose Festival and are looking forward to meeting you all again. Ewan Galloway Scottish Dance Band will be playing for the afternoon festival and the evening dance. Hopefully they will bring wonderful weather with them to match their music.

Following the positive feedback and success of opening the junior programme to all dancers this year we have decided to offer an integrated programme for 2024. Dances are paired together in degree of difficulty and some pairs of dances are aimed at the junior teams and beginners, and other pairs are more challenging for the experienced dancers. Team leaders can select as few or as many pairs of dances from the programme to suit the dancers in their team.

Note: The deadline for team booking is 18th June and will be enforced.

Date: Saturday, 13th July 2024
