DanceRites 2023 | Finals | Livestream

Watch Australia’s only national dance competition for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander groups. This year’s free event will be the largest on-site iteration of the competition since it began in 2015. Twenty-two dance groups and more than 350 performers from over 30 nations and clans across Australia will take to the Forecourt in a joyous celebration of First Nations music, dance and culture. DanceRites will unfold over two days, with heats on Saturday 25 November and the finals live-streamed on Sunday 26 November. Each group will present a Cultural Dance and Song cycle, representing their local storytelling and language, with many also performing an optional ‘Wildcard’ dance to showcase their unique style. __ SUBSCRIBE to Sydney Opera House: The new streaming service from the Sydney Opera House has arrived.
