This year we are starting a new tradition; the first annual Adelaide Salsa Festival Jack & Jill Competition! How does it work? Partners will be randomly selected on the night. Names will be drawn out of a hat, the DJ plays a random song and off they go! The competition will test competitor’s social dancing skills; timing, musicality, ability to connect with their partner and overall x-factor! To make things more interesting, the DJ will randomly select a SALSA or BACHATA song. Competitors have 1.5 minutes to show what they’ve got!

With performers from all over Australia, it is going to be a seriously hot competition!

GET READY TO PARTY!
