Then on Saturday, September 19, experience a full day of completely free dance classes in celebration of National Dance Day.
Free Day of Dance celebrates the incredible variety of movement within the Huntsville dance community, bringing together everything from Ballet, Contemporary, Hip Hop, and Pole to cultural and social dance styles like Salsa, Lindy Hop, Bollywood, Folk Dance, and more.

Whether you’re stepping into your first class or you’ve been dancing for years, this event is designed to welcome dancers of all backgrounds and experience levels.
What started as a vision to connect adult dancers across Huntsville has continued to grow year after year into something truly special — a space to move, learn, collaborate, and celebrate the diversity of dance in our community.
Come take classes, watch performances, try something new, meet fellow dancers, and be part of a weekend built entirely around connection through dance — completely free.
Performance Location
The Orion Amphitheater
The Orion is an 8,000-capacity destination venue that marks a bold new chapter in the Southeast’s unparalleled musical history. With its proximity to the iconic Muscle Shoals Sound Studio, Huntsville enjoys its status as part of the Americana Music Triangle, known for its cultural achievement as the birthplace of one of our country’s greatest exports, music – particularly blues, soul and rock’n’roll.
The Orion Amphitheater goes beyond music, providing cultural experiences throughout the year, including markets, art displays and educational events for the community, plus opportunities for local businesses and government to stage large-scale gatherings. This continued commitment to positively impact the community provides direct support to local causes through awareness, educational, fundraising, and donation efforts.
