Frequently asked questions
We’re thrilled to have you join this exciting initiative, which brings together communities to get more people dancing. On this page, you’ll find answers to common questions about how to participate, what to expect, and how to make the most out of your experience with Let’s Dance.
What if we’re not available on 8 March 2026 - can we still get involved with Let's Dance? 
Absolutely! March 8th is the official launch day for the campaign, but we encourage everyone to get dancing whenever it works best for them – even if it’s the next day, week, or whenever your schedule allows. The more people dancing, the better, no matter the date!
Who is the campaign for?
Let’s Dance is designed for everyone – all ages, backgrounds, and abilities! To make your plans as inclusive as possible, consider the following tips:
- Accessible venues: Choose spaces that are accessible and easy for all community members to reach.
- Dance styles: Offer a mix of dance styles to accommodate different abilities and experience levels, including seated dance options.
- Flexible participation: Create opportunities for people to participate in different ways, whether as a dancer or spectator, so everyone feels welcome.
With a focus on inclusivity, we can make Let’s Dance a celebration that everyone can enjoy!
Is there a specific dance everyone should perform?
Let’s Dance is all about creativity and self-expression, so we encourage you to come up with your own unique ideas! Whether it’s a solo performance, a group routine, or even a freestyle session, we want participants to dance in whatever way feels right to them. Let your imagination lead the way and create something that’s meaningful and fun for you and your community!
Will there be any funding support to help people plan for the 8th of March?
At this time, we don’t have dedicated funding available to cover costs such as space hire or promotional activities. However, we encourage participants to explore local funding opportunities, such as grants or sponsorships from community organisations, businesses, or local councils. Many areas have funding schemes designed to support community events, and this can be a great way to help bring your Let’s Dance plans to life.
Will there be any additional PR support available?
