Australian Dance Festival 2024

In September 2024, Showtime HMS travelled to Sydney to attend the Australian Dance Festival, and it was an unforgettable experience from start to finish.

The tour included 11 students and 4 amazing parent helpers, travelling from Thursday through to Monday. This trip was made possible thanks to months of dedicated fundraising throughout the year, with students and families working together to raise funds and make this opportunity accessible.

During the festival, our dancers participated in incredible workshops led by industry professionals and watched inspiring performances and shows. These experiences gave our students valuable insight into the wider dance world and motivated them to continue growing both technically and artistically.

Monday was all about sightseeing and celebrating the end of a big week. Highlights included exploring Sydney and, for some of our brave students, climbing the Sydney Harbour Bridge – an experience they’ll be talking about for years to come.

We are so proud of how our students represented Showtime HMS throughout the trip and grateful to the families who helped make it such a success. We can't wait for our next trip in 2027!
