About this event

The second day of the Dance City Festival featuring community dance performances and networking opportunities.

What to Expect

  • 1.You'll see short community dance pieces spread through the DIA, not just one big stage, so skim the schedule and plan a couple of routes to catch different works.
  • 2.The crowd will be artsy and friendly with dancers and organizers mingling during breaks, so you can chat if you want but you're not required to network non stop.
  • 3.Parking at the DIA can fill up quickly since it's in Midtown Detroit, so arriving early or using transit is smart and give yourself time to find the main entrances.
  • 4.Expect light refreshments in the networking areas and maybe the on site cafe, but hours and availability can vary so plan to grab a bite before or after.
  • 5.If you're new to this, grab a map or the festival program to locate the Summer Stage and the lounges, wear comfy shoes for a museum sized stroll, and give yourself time to explore the galleries between performances.
