Where to start your shortlist
These have filled in the most detail, from biography and line-up to songs and price. That is the only order used here. It says nothing about who plays best.
By type, Sydney has 82 dancers, 8 belly dancers and 4 latin dancers in this listing.
Watch before you shortlist
15 of the Sydney dancers have a performance video on their page. A minute of real footage tells you more about how an act sounds and holds a room than any written description. A few to start with:
Events outside Sydney
18 of the 94 dancers here say how far they will go. 12 cover 200 km or more, some anywhere in the state or the country. 5 go somewhere between 50 and 200 km, and 1 stay within 50 km. For a venue out of town, name it in your enquiry: travel and a night's accommodation usually go on the quote.
Paperwork your venue may ask for
Venues often want to see public liability insurance, and anything involving children usually needs a Working With Children Check. In Sydney, 8 list public liability insurance.
Before you book
Dancers in Sydney: common questions
What should I budget for a dance act in Sydney?
Half of the 13 dancers here that list a guide price sit between $300 and $500, and the figure in the middle is $500. Treat that as a starting point, not a quote. Your date, the hours you need and the size of the line-up move it, so ask each act to price your actual night.
Can I see a dance act perform before I book?
Yes, for 15 of them. Their pages have a performance video you can play, which tells you more about how they sound and look in a room than any description can.
Will a Sydney dance act travel to a regional venue?
Many will. 18 of the dancers listed here say how far they go, and 12 of those cover 200 km or more. Mention the venue when you enquire, because travel and accommodation usually get added to the quote.
What happens once I send an enquiry?
Each act you picked replies with a written quote for your date. Put them side by side, check what each one includes, then decide. Enquiring costs nothing and you are not committed to anyone.
