Event location details

Dangoor Plaza

Get ready to dance the afternoon away at our Bandstand, with a programme packed full of traditional music, dance workshops, and performances!

A number of Imperial College Union Societies will be bringing Dangoor Plaza to life. Showing off their incredible skills will be the university’s Gospel Choir, some wonderful A Capella groups and the winners of the Live Music Societies’ Battle of the Bands 2026.

We'll also have local dance companies, bringing some brand new dance workshops for 2026, where you can get involved and learn some new moves. These will take you around the world from Peru to West Africa to South Asia and ending up back in the UK with traditional folk dancing (with a hip-hop twist!).

We will post a full schedule of performances and workshops closer to the Festival weekend.
