The Gold Coast is set to host 360 dancers and 300 spectators in the city’s biggest ever live-music ballroom dance competition this Saturday, with $3500 in prize money up for grabs across four events.
180 couples, including two former Dancing with the Stars contestants, will face the challenge of adapting their performance to live-music that will be played by a nine-piece band, without any choice on their routine or choice of music.
The competition will be held at the Gold Coast’s Runaway Community Centre and will be judged by three panels of seven professionals from the UK, North Queensland, Victoria, Western Australia and the Gold Coast.
