As proud ambassadors for The Bahamas, the NDC has thrilled audiences in the United States and Europe. In 1995 the NDC traveled to Europe to represent The Bahamas at the World Travel market, Earl’s Court, London and Regine’ s, Paris France and again in 1997 to take part in the Silver Jubilee Celebration of the Aberdeen International Youth Festival in Aberdeen Scotland, the Medway Festival in Rochester Kent, England, Broadstairies and St. Peter’s. In 1999 the NDC made a return trip to the Aberdeen International Youth Festival.
Locally, the NDC holds two major concerts per year between the months of April and August: Nassau for a duration of six (6) performances and Freeport for a duration of three (3) performances. The NDC is also involved in guest performances throughout the year. It is hoped that other islands of The Bahamas will be included in the NDC’s schedule in the future.
About Dance Bahamas
