Welcome to the New Zealand Dance Awards! We are so stoked that you are thinking about joining us in celebrating our 13th Season with Regionals across 5 centres finishing with our NATIONAL FINALS in Christchurch in the 2025 JULY holidays.
Regionals are a must in 2025 as they will not only act as stand alone events with REGIONAL CHAMPIONS they will also act as qualifiers to our NATIONAL FINALS in Christchurch.
Our NATIONAL FINALS will see over 1000 acts perform and countless workshops taken part in, friendships made and much more! Whether your interest is in the style of Tap, Jazz or Musical Theatre we have something for you and with our amazing bunch of volunteers and superb stable of sponsors there is a great assortment of opportunities and scholarships to offer to our confirmed competitors.
In 2025 our NATIONAL FINALS will consist of Scholarship Solo Classes only which will still be competed in individual age groups i.e. Intermediate Jazz Scholarship 12 - 14 years [Jazz Solo, Musical Theatre Solo, Own Selection & Impromptu Workshop] will be competed across 12, 13 & 14 years individual classes. please see further details for qualifying for each scholarship in the REGIONAL INFO TAB. This has been done to condense the time soloists need to be at FINALS especially those travelling. With Scholarship Awards happening after the conclusion of solos this should allow families more certainty in travel times and planning ahead.

JUNIOR 9 - 11 YEARS SCHOLARSHIP in TAP, JAZZ & HIP HOP
