Dance Barnet is Coming Back!

Following the incredible success of Dance Barnet 2024, we’re thrilled to announce its return in 2026.

Ten talented participants with disabilities will light up the stage once again, each paired with a professional dancer, in a dazzling, Strictly inspired competition judged by a panel of high profile figures.

The event is a borough-wide initiative led by Step Change Studios, in partnership with the London Borough of Barnet, dedicated to making dance accessible to all. Over 100 disabled individuals—aged 11 to 101—took part in free workshops and auditions, celebrating creativity, movement, and inclusion.

Made possible through a funding award from the Sport England Movement Fund, working in partnership with Step Change Studios again, Dance Barnet 2026 promises to be even bigger and better, with the finals event scheduled for Friday 27th February at the artsdepot Finchley - you won’t want to miss it!

FREE tickets to watch this amazing event go live on 6 January – but they won’t last long! Secure your spot as soon as booking opens to avoid missing out.
