THANKS TO OUR SPONSORSWith just a couple of days until competition begins, we wanted to pause to recognise the support of our sponsors. Gold Ridge Marine Farm has been a sponsor of the NZODC for the past two years and we're thrilled that Gilbert and Anne are on board again for this year. They are generous supporters of a number of community events, so it's wonderful to have their ongoing commitment to the dancesport community too. If you love mussels, chances are you've dined on produce farmed by Gilbert and Anne on the Coromandel. Waipa district is the home of rowing, cycling and horse racing champions. And this year dancers will be added to that list, with more than 90 titles up for grabs. Thank you to Waipa District Council, our funding partner, for their support of this year's event. SPECIAL PERFORMANCEAs if the dancing wasn't enough, this year we're excited to be bringing you a special performance from The Dust Palace on both the Saturday and Sunday evenings. This Auckland-based circus theatre company deliver visually stunning performances using a mix of apparatus, including silks and and the cyr wheel.
