You can be a part of the biggest community event in belly dance.  Gather with belly dancers all over the world to celebrate International Belly Dance Week. 

Come to Los Angeles for the ultimate IBDW event

Host an event in your own city.  This can be a special class or workshop, a show, an outreach project, or a lunch time lecture educating people on the history and culture of belly dancing.  Participating venues can be libraries, restaurants, community centers, women’s centers like the YMCA, dance studios, or park and recreation centers. 

Your event must take place the second week of August while dancers from around the world celebrate the beauty and art of the world’s oldest recorded dance. 

Your event will be posted on our Links page.

No event is complete without good photos and we will be looking for photos showing IBDW events from all over the globe to post on this site!

Join us in Los Angeles to celebrate IBDW.  Our week will consist of dance classes, an evening of films, awards event, an outreach program, parties and of course…. "This is Belly Dance" at the famed Ford Amphitheatre in Hollywood.  This dynamic high-powered show will be the highlight of the exciting week with some of the best belly dance performers in the world.
