The Australian Dance Festival is a celebration of Australia's Best in Dance!  As a part of these celebrations, we want to showcase Australia's Best Dance Crews on Friday 14th September (and NO! It's not just hip hop we're looking for!).

We know that dance is subjective, and it can be controversial to say that one dance crew is better than another, so we are introducing a unique competition, where dance teams won't be competing to come 1st, 2nd or 3rd.  Instead, we will be looking to award:

• The Most Entertaining Dance Crew (Prize = $2,500 + Trophy)
  
• The Best Choreographed Dance Crew (Prize = $2,500 + Trophy)
• The Dance Crew displaying the best technical ability (Prize = $2,500 + Trophy)

COMPETITORS

• Each dance crew must have a minimum of 10 members and a maximum of 30
  
• Crew members can be of any age.
• Each dance routine must be less than 3 minutes and 30 seconds in length
  
• Entry fee for each member is $75 (yes $75! ).  We know that this sounds steep but this includes:
  
  1)  A full pass to the Australian Dance Festival (valued at $150 for concession, $220 for adults)  and
  
  2)  An opportunity to have your dance crew photographed with our major dance celebrities during the event (e.g. Jason Coleman, Kelly Abbey)
  
  
• We believe that every Australian dancer should strive to constantly improve and learn, and we want all the competitors in "Australia's Best Dance Crew" to embrace this philosophy which is why we want to encourage all competitors to take part in the amazing workshops over the Festival weekend.
• Entries will be accepted strictly on a first come, first served basis. 
  
• Applications will close on the 31st July 2012 or when all spots have been filled
• More details on the terms and conditions of the competition are outlined in the application form below.
