California Dance Festivals
From ballroom to tap, flamenco to tango, hip hop to folklorico, there are many types of dancing to enjoy and a calendar full of festivals and events to expose even non-dancers to the joy.
While some festivals are geared toward learning, most sell tickets or passes for spectators to come and watch dance shows!
