Dance Camp East has been nurturing connection and creativity for over three decades, making it one of the UK’s most trusted and enduring festivals. Our long-standing history reflects a deep commitment to fostering a vibrant community where everyone feels welcome, valued, and inspired.

Unlike many festivals, DCE is designed with families in mind. Our safe and inclusive environment offers something for all ages, from enriching activities for children to engaging workshops and performances for adults. Parents, children, and individuals alike can enjoy a sense of togetherness while creating lasting memories.

At the heart of DCE are our diverse and inspiring workshops, talks, and wellness activities. Whether you’re looking to dive into personal growth and healing, explore your creative side, or practice mindfulness and healing, our expert-led sessions provide something meaningful for everyone.

While most festivals last just a weekend, Dance Camp East gives you an entire week to immerse yourself in its magic for a cheaper price than you’d pay for a few days anywhere else. With seven days to explore, connect, and grow, you’ll have the time and space to truly unwind, deepen your experiences, and fully embrace the festival’s offerings.

We pride ourselves on our eco-friendly ethos, making sustainability a core part of the festival. From compost toilets to low-impact practices, we aim to minimize our footprint and celebrate living in harmony with nature, offering a meaningful alternative to larger commercial festivals.

DCE offers a unique opportunity to unplug from the commercial world and connect authentically with others. Through dance, music, and shared experiences, you’ll meet like-minded individuals and build bonds that extend far beyond the festival. It’s not just an event; it’s a true community
