Blackpool Ballroom Dancing - OMG it's AMAZING!

Join me for a look inside the Winter Gardens at one of the biggest competitions of the year. We're going Blackpool Ballroom Dancing - OMG it's AMAZING! It's my first time behind the scenes and it's jaw-dropping - another world!
The 98th Blackpool Dance Festival welcomed professional dancers to the resort at the end of May 2024. The competition features some of the world's best dancers - it's a festival with colour, sequins, tears and passion. Along with the dance action there's a number of new dress designers exhibiting this year - some of the amazing dresses are up to £15k!

For Blackpool to have 2 world class ballrooms is amazing. Just imagine what a great place Blackpool was in its heyday.

[@dianeshepherd7913]

Thanks for the fabulous video, loved seeing the dresses, shoes etc, and a glimpse of the dancers in action 😊

[@guypickup4966]

Wonderful building and super ambience and classic atmospheric interior and insight,well done 👍

[@TheBorzoilover]

I was watching that with my mouth wide open the dresses omg fabulous, and the dancers those girls and boys are super fit to create those body shapes..I went many years ago and always said i would love to go again, so next year this is on my wish list...Thanks for showing us around.

[@wendyjones2351]

Hi Jane thank you for another great video as always them dresses are gorgeous love to watch people dancing ive got two left feet lol have a lovely day xx

[@lillianrosbottom7366]

How gorgeous are those dresses. I never knew there was a ballroom in there

[@EmmaKelly74159]

WOW, this video was out of this world, thank you so much for sharing, I'm sure that everyone that watches is overwhelmed, the people, the dresses the building , thank you again Jane very entertaining. 😘

[@visitfyldecoast]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@hazelmanship7516]

Wow an amazing vlog, love strictly, those dresses were gorgeous,loved the reds and burgundy ones, you could have had a dance with the guys practicing on their own, missed a chance there Jane thanks loved this 😊xxx

[@kevinlittlewood7244]

Now the excessive security makes sense. Not only to make sure everyone has a ticket, but there must be millions of pounds worth of costumes and accessories in there. I think this might be my favourite behind the scenes videos so far. Brilliant 👏

[@lindseykaine-walley6339]

I would have loved to see you have a dance, Jane! It was a sparkling video!!

[@MichaelScott-kw6gv]

Fantastic Video. Well Done.

[@sengaritchie6824]

Oh Jane that was fascinating! The dancing world is definitely another way of life, & they all looked amazing dancers 😊...thank you for a look into the glamour of professional dancing💃🕺 & their beautiful costumes.
Thank you once again for a fab video! That truly was awesome 👌 🥰

[@elainepilkington9642]

That was lovely 😍 I would have loved to be there, I love strictly 😊

[@JulieBilson]

Thanks for sharing Jane😊

[@erykfreethinker7147]

Kris would love one of those dresses! Sadly I am no Fred Astair ... I can only just climb a-stair!
A wonderful event and a great atmosphere despite the fierce competition there must be!

[@lornaburgess9762]

My cousin Linda is coming down to Blackpool in August with her dancing group of friends staying at The Savoy. They love the Tower Ballroom.🏆

[@richardjones8699]

Fantastic content.

[@juliepownall1063]

Very nice

[@minamoo3035]

My daughter competed there a few times but with the lesser known IDTA the ballroom is wonderful

[@Dazer1972]

The strictly professionals were in Blackpool at the grand theatre a few weeks ago with their tour

[@lindanagle5081]

Fabulous costumes, beautiful dancing.

[@centureye]

[@mariusbabii]

all of these outfits are mushy stuff for madams, and I can dance like this to my punk rock/metal and goth, music, plus pogo too, I've done it in college,, long time ago,...........marius(punk rules).

[@sianclarke8998]

I have always wanted to view the festival, but the price is prohibitive. I cant understand why they are so expensive as they are not having to pay an artist to perform

[@hobbyshortstv8323]

when was this filmed 😂😂

[@visitfyldecoast]

Last Thursday

[@hobbyshortstv8323]

but I was at the coral harbour that day

[@lindanagle5081]

I tried

[@flamezodiac5736]

Ugh I seriously hate this town

[@visitfyldecoast]

You don't have to watch....

[@kevinlittlewood7244]

I don't think the town is overly impressed with you either.
